Problem

Our research and experience indicate that environmental and sustainability organizations face a number of project management challenges. These challenges, which lead to suboptimal outcomes, include:

- lack of collaboration and coordination between organizations in implementing projects;

- information asymmetry and limited personnel capability;

- lack of transparency and rigour in the monitoring, reporting, and verification of environmental projects and their outcomes.
