The EPA's strong international assistance programs allow other countries--especially developing countries and countries with economies in transition--to benefit from the experience of the United States in implementing appropriate and effective domestic environmental programs. These programs also promote collaboration with the United States and other nations in addressing global environmental problems. In exchange, the EPA receives the benefits of foreign regulatory and management experience, scientific and technical information, and innovative policy approaches. The Agency participates in cooperative programs in places as diverse as China, Central Europe and South Africa.
