Environmental coordinators
In addition to the Transport and Environment Attachés in specific countries, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management established the environment coordinators network, a network aiming at the exchange of information on important developments in environmental policies worldwide. In all embassies of the Netherlands a staff member is dedicated to participate in the network.
