History

The Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of Azerbaijan was established on May 23, 2001 as per the Presidential Decree of President Heydar Aliyev No. 485 in accordance with structural reforms within the Azerbaijani government.

The decree abolished all these agencies and centralized the governmental regulations and activities by replacing them with the new ministry.
