About Us

The ESAI is an association of individuals working in or with an interest in the environmental area in Ireland.

Our aim is to facilitate communication and interaction between persons interested in the environment through colloquia, seminars, workshops and publications.

Our aims and objectives are to:

• Provide a forum to facilitate exchange of specialist information and advice amongst environment researchers, policy makers, environmental management practitioners and other stakeholders, within Ireland and elsewhere.
• Promote a fuller awareness of the role that higher-level education institutions may make in finding solutions for the urgent environmental problems confronting contemporary society.
• Provide a forum for networking amongst environment researchers both at national and international scales.
• Facilitate an annual conference aimed at providing postgraduate and other researchers with an opportunity to learn about each other's work, and for postgraduates to present and publish papers within a supportive community.
• Promote high professional standards amongst environmental researchers and professionals.
