Summary The Best Practice Environmental Management (BPEM) in Mining program is a world-renowned partnership between the mining industry, stakeholder organisations and the Australian Government. It aims to help all sectors of the minerals industry - minerals, coal, oil and gas - to protect the environment and to reduce the impact of minerals production. Since the program began in 1994, Environment Australia has worked with industry partners to produce 24 booklets on a range of topics, from community consultation to water management and cleaner production. The booklets present concise, practical information on how to achieve environmental management best practice in the minerals industry anywhere in the world. The Training Kit is designed to help trainers plan and deliver effective training aimed at improving the environmental performance of minerals operations. In conjunction with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Environment Australia has developed this training kit to move the Sustainable Minerals program into a new phase. It assists trainers in developing training sessions based on the Sustainable Minerals booklets and provides presentation slides, notes, a selection of case studies and worksheets
