PEI supports six countries in Asia Pacific to achieve Sustainable Development by integrating ecological, climate and fairness concerns into national, subnational and sectoral economic decision making and planning processes. The programme supports Ministries of Finance, Planning and Local Government to direct public and private investments to achieve greener, more inclusive economies. 

PEI's impact on institutions, policies and investments is the result of a wide range of interventions. These vary from capacity building for decision makers in sustainability and climate change adaptation; to producing sound economic research and analysis; tracking public spending on climate change; improving enforcement of environmental regulations.
