PROMOTING ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND TECHNOLOGY IN THE ASEAN 
REGION 
 
A FEASIBILITY STUDY CONDUCTED BY CERF/IIEC 
 
OBJECTIVE:  PROVIDE SUPPORT TO ASEAN AND THE US-AEP IN 
EVALUATING THE FEASIBILITY OF ESTABLISHMENT A REGIONAL 
CENTER OR NETWORK FOR THE ASSESSMENT AND PROMOTION OF 
ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND TECHNOLOGIES (EST). 
 
OVERALL FINDINGS: 
--  A REGIONAL CENTER OR NETWORK WOULD STRENGTHEN ASEAN 
OBJECTIVES IN EST 
--  EST SHOULD INCLUDE TECHNOLOGIES FOR INDUSTRIAL 
PRODUCTIVITY, URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE, AND DEVELOPMENT 
--  LIMITED RESOURCES REQUIRE A COST-CONSCIOUS APPROACH

LEVERAGING OTHER PROGRAMS 
--  AN EFFECTIVE EST ASSESSMENT PROGRAM REQUIRES BUY-IN AT 
THE POLICY LEVEL (THE ASEAN SENIOR ENVIRONMENTAL OFFICIALS 
NETWORK MAY BE WILLING TO TAKE ON "OWNERSHIP" OF THE 
PROJECT) 
--  SUCCESS REQUIRES A CREDIBLE, OPEN, AND OBJECTIVE PROCESS 
AND INDEPENDENT VOICE 
--  A FOUNDATION OF EXPERTISE EXISTS FOR THE PROGRAM WITHIN 
THE ASEAN NATIONS 
--  LEVERAGING OPPORTUNITIES EXIST:  US AGENCIES (EPA, AID, 
DOE, DOC, TDA, OPIC, ETC.); EXISTING MEMBER COUNTRY 
PROGRAMS;  OTHER COUNTRIES;  INTERNATIONAL AGENCIES SUCH AS 
UNEP, GEF, ADF, ETC.;  PRIVATE SECTOR 
 
ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES: 
THE STUDY CONSIDERED ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES FOR THE 
FOLLOWING FACTORS AND DESCRIBES PROS AND CONS OF EACH: 
-- NUMBER OF CENTERS - SINGLE, MULTIPLE (4-6), ONE IN EACH 
COUNTRY, OR A NETWORK WITH NO SPECIFIC CENTER 
-- FOCUS OF CENTERS/NODES - COMPREHENSIVE (ALL TECHNOLOGIES 
AND SUB-REGIONS), GEOGRAPHIC SUB-REGIONS, SPECIFIC 
ENVIRONMENTAL MEDIA (I.E., AIR, WATER, SOLID WASTE, ETC.) 
AND ECOSYSTEM (MARINE, URBAN, FOREST, ETC.) 
-- LOCATION - GEOGRAPHICALLY, ORGANIZATIONALLY (GOVERNMENT, 
PUBLIC, ACADEMIC, NGO, ETC.) 
-- ORGANIZATIONAL STRATEGY - NEW CENTERS, ADD-ON TO EXISTING 
CENTERS, OR VIRTUAL CENTERS
