Abstract

Environmental law and development law need to improve their content, but above all, the institutional mechanisms for implementing administrative and judicial procedures, which are open to individuals, associations and the general public, need to be improved. Critical inventories of existing legal norms should be organized in order to provide the government and legislature with information and proposals combining specialized legal information and expert opinions.

National programs for monitoring and evaluating compliance with or violation of legal norms, allowing for the regular evaluation of the effectiveness of legal instruments and institutions, will also need to be developed.

Taking into account the development of international law, the obligation of the state to implement at national level the international agreements on environment and development, in order to respect the international commitments assumed, is strengthened. This is all the more so as the fundamental principles of environmental law spring from both international and national sources.
