About [Edit]
The SEU is an umbrella for nearly 300 organizations and groups in Russia, Belorussia, Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Tadjikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. Their activities are aimed at the harmonization of society and nature, conservation and rehabilitation of the cultural and natural environment, and against actions that destroy spiritual values and human health. Despite the difficulties, their programs operate in a democratic and inclusive manner.
The organisation of the Socio-Ecological Union, is aimed at maximising the "cooperation of the intellectual potential, material and financial means, and organisational possibilities of the Union's members for the preservation of nature and the protection of living beings; for the protection and revival of mankind's natural and cultural heritage; for the protection of human's physical and mental health; and for guaranteeing a safe environment and sustainable development."
The SEU's activities include:
Environmental monitoring:
Radiological monitoring in regions surrounding military plants and cities;
Dioxin-pollution monitoring in regions surrounding paper-plants, and chemical-pollution monitoring in several regions of Russia and Uzbekistan; and
Monitoring the management of boreal forests by Russian and multinational timber companies;
Protection of biological diversity and the management of protected areas:
A Bio-diversity Conservation Centre (BCC) programme was designed to facilitate long-term survival of nature reserves in the CIS countries;
The first private nature reserve was established in Amur region to save nesting habitat of rare crane species; and
Designated and established many protected areas.
Non-governmental environmental-impact assessments of several energy projects were managed by SEU experts.
The SEU is also active in environmental education, sustainable development issues, environmental aspects of local self-government, development of new environmentally sound technologies, and military conversion issues, among others.
