Managing Director’s Message

Greetings from PNG Conservation, Environment and Promotion Authority.

I’m more than glad to present to you CEPA’s newly designed official website www.cepa.gov.pg after the transitions from Department of Environment & Conservation to Conservation and Environment Protection Authority (CEPA). I thank you for taking a moment to visit our newly constructed official website to learn about PNG Conservations and Environment Protection Authority and our business.

At PNG Conservations and Environment Protection Authority, we provide and cater for conservation & protection of environment and facilitate for the natures betterment in PNG and our contribution to the global safe environment policy.

By changing status to an authority will provide great opportunity through significant resources allocation to implement its other priority mandates apart from environment regulation and biodiversity protection.  Our conservation parks in PNG act as the preservation and conservation centres. We are the premier owner and operator of all major declared natural parks & botanic in Papua New Guinea.

The Authority is mandated to ensure that PNG’s environment is managed in an environmentally sustainable manner, in particular to implement the Government’s responsible sustainable development policy agenda. The sustainable development initiative aims to use renewable resource base and strategies for assisting industry and people to manage their environment sustainably whilst maintaining economic growth and improving livelihood.

We have redesigned our website to be on par with today’s technology and innovation; market our department as a prime arm in conserving, caring and protecting environment in PNG and furthermore provide up to date information on our operations to all PNG and stakeholders both in the country and abroad.

I trust that you will find the PNG CEPA website user-friendly, easy to navigate and locate the information you need. However, if you need further assistance, seek more information, or you wish to make some comments on our website, please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected]

Thank you for visiting our website
