The Eswatini Environment Authority, (EEA) is mandated to provide for and promote the protection, conservation and enhancement of the environment and the sustainable management of natural resources of Eswatini. [1] It was created by the Swaziland Environment Act, 1992, and was transformed into a corporate body by The Environment Management Act, 2002. [2] This latter act gives the SEA the power to halt developments that have not been adequately scrutinised for their environmental impact. [3] It is a department of the Ministry of Tourism and Environmental Affairs. [4]
