Environmental Campaign Committee

The Environmental Campaign Committee (ECC) has been set up since 1990 to promote public awareness of environmental issues and encourage the public to contribute actively towards a better environment. Committee members are appointed by the Chief Executive. Representatives of relevant government bureaux and departments, including the Environment and Ecology Bureau, also sit on the Committee. With the funding allocation from the Environment and Conservation Fund, the ECC organises various environmental events and activities for different sectors of community. The membership list and terms of reference of the ECC are as follows:

  • To campaign for the environment with the objectives of instilling the sense of environmental responsibility and motivating attitude and behavioural change towards environmental protection;
  • To advise the government on publicity and educational programmes related to the environment with a view to contributing to the government’s formulation of relevant policy initiatives and measures;
