THE BULLETIN is the quarterly newsletter of the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe (REC). THE BULLETIN assists the REC to fulfill its mission, namely to promote public participation in environmental decisionmaking by providing information on the environment and encouraging cooperation among regional stakeholders. By supporting environmental nongovernmental organizations, local authorities, national governments, academic institutions, the media and businesses in 15 Central and Eastern European countries, the REC hopes to act as a catalyst for developing solutions to environmental problems and to promote the development of civil society in the region.

The REC was established in 1990 by the United States, the European Commission and Hungary. Today, the REC is legally based on a Charter signed by the governments of twenty-five countries and the European Commission, and on an International Agreement with the Government of Hungary. The REC has its head office in Szentendre, Hungary and Local Offices in each of its 15 beneficiary CEE countries which are: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, FYR Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia and Yugoslavia.
