Welcome to the website of Indian Institute of Ecology and
Environment (IIEE)
The Indian Institute of
Ecology and Environment, New Delhi was established on the
occasion of the World Environment Day on 5th June 1980. The
motivation for the establishment of this institution has been
based on the issues of environmental education discussed in the
deliberations at Founes in 1971 and later at Stockholm in 1972
followed by the workshop on Environmental Education at Belgred
in 1975 and also on the resolutions and recommendations of the
Intergovernmental Conference on Environment at Tbilisi in 1977
organised by UNEP and UNESCO. The Institute has been organising
since its inception different programmes having social,
educational, cultural, economic and positive content for the
optimum development of a sustainable society. .
