Through the 2026 University Extension Program, the entity seeks to contribute to the improvement of preventive environmental oversight in the countryThe Environmental Assessment and Supervision Agency (OEFA), an entity attached to the Ministry of the Environment, began the University Extension Program in Environmental Enforcement (PEU) 2026, an academic initiative that brings together more than 90 outstanding young university students from the careers of Sciences, Social Sciences, Law and Economics, from public and private universities from various regions of the country.
The intention of the program is to strengthen the technical capabilities of the participants in environmental oversight with a focus on sustainable development, providing them with specialized training and a comprehensive understanding of the role of the OEFA in environmental protection.
The academic program is developed in virtual mode and will last 160 academic hours. In this regard, Igor Mejia Verastegui, director of Policies and Strategies in Environmental Enforcement of the OEFA, reported that, after an arduous admission process of more than 1,100 applicants, it was possible to have the representation of students from the regions: Amazonas, Apurimac, Ayacucho, Cajamarca, Cusco, Huanuco, Junin, Lambayeque, Lima, Pasco, Piura, Puno, San Martin, Tacna and Tumbes.
This group, made up mostly of women and students from public and private universities, clearly reflects that the commitment to the environment and public service does not recognize borders or distinctions, but rather authentic vocations for change, Mejia highlighted.
With this new edition of the PEU 2026, the OEFA reaffirms its commitment to technical excellence, the strengthening of capacities and the promotion of public service in favor of the protection of the environment and the well-being of the population.
