Ambition for a Better Future: Trends in Impact Assessment Research and Implications for Planning Practice


Ambition for a Better Future: Trends in Impact Assessment Research and Implications for Planning Practice

09:00 ‐ 17:00

  • Tagung

Environmental assessments operate in increasingly complex systems and, like our society, face major, multifaceted challenges that influence environmental assessment practice and research. Based on the research project “International Trends in EIA and SEA research and practice 2.0“, topics and trends of environmental assessment will be discussed together with international colleagues. We want to explore how environmental planning practice will develop in the future, how global challenges can be integrated and what contribution environmental assessments can make to a societal transformation in line with the sustainable development goals (SDGs).

Current developments around streamlining, digitalization, climate change adaptation and climate protection will be discussed on May 25, 2023 based on the results of the research project together with contributions from national and international colleagues from academia, administration, and consultancies.

We cordially invite you to join us on May 25, 2023 at our event "Ambition for a Better Future – Trends in Impact Assessment Research and Implications for Planning Practice", to discuss future challenges, innovative approaches, and important discourses in the field of environmental assessment. The event will be held as a Zoom Conference and will be conducted in English (without translation).
Further information about the programme can be found on the event homepage. 

The project was commissioned by the German Environment Agency in Dessau (Germany) and financed with federal funds.
