Linking Impact Assessment Instruments to Sustainability Expertise (LIAISE)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2014,

Existing research points out that the full potential of Impact Assessment (IA) for delivering sustainable development is not being realised. Many tools to support IA are not yet being fully employed by policy makers. This is symptomatic of a large and deep gap between the two broad communities of IA researchers and IA practitioners. Practitioners tend to look for tools that are simple and transpar ...
