CEIE is an online communication for virtual exchange that highlights the diversity of cultures and communicates the significance of the resource management efforts of indigenous cultures. In addition, it seeks to understand the dynamics of culture and environment in Europe and to share n Asian view that emphasizes the importance of the cultural perspective for environmental management. Likewise, it seeks to learn from European traditional communities with strong regional identities and to understand the opportunities this opens up.

The CEIE initiative involves institutional partners from Europe, Asia and the Philippines. With Asian partners and EU-based research collaborators, the CEIE partners will be providing assistance and complementary expertise in learning and managing information technology and communication applications in the development of methods and mechanisms to understand and communicate cultural and environment relations. It is on this basis that other international support can be drawn in to the CEIE partnership and its activities sustained.
