Abstract: It is of practical significance to explore the restricting factors in the process of the regional environmental audit cooperation and to implement relevent cooperation strategy, so as to accelerate the strategic management of environmental audit and determine the carrying capacity of regional environment. At the beginning, this paper puts forward the theoretical framework, constructs the implementation path and operational framework for the regional environmental audit cooperation in close combination with regional characteristics of environmental problems and environmental governance. It also dissects the restricting factors in the regional environment audit cooperation such as no generally accepted governance concept across borders, and weak foundation etc. Furthermore, it makes proposals on how to implement the outcomes of regional environmental audit cooperation, including developing a regional environment audit cooperation concept, strengthening the overall planning of audit institutions at the higher level, constructing a dynamic mechanism of the regional environment audit cooperation.
