US-AEP works in four program areas � Policy, Urban, Industry and Technology Cooperation � and embodies a model of cooperative development that encourages US and Asian partnerships, engaging key decision-makers who affect economic change and environmental awareness in Asia and the U.S. With our wide range of partners�governments, NGOs, academia, and the private sector�US- AEP has become a flexible, responsive vehicle for delivering timely answers to environmental questions.
