Ambition for a better future:
Trends in Impact Assessment research and implications for planning practice

Environmental assessments operate in increasingly complex systems and, like our society, face major, multifaceted challenges that influence environmental assessment practice and research. With the research project “International Trends in EIA and SEA research and practice 2.0“, we explore which topics and trends of impact assessment are currently being discussed and are relevant for practice today and in the future.

We cordially invite you to join us on May 25, 2023 to discuss future challenges, innovative approaches and important discourses in the field of environmental assessment.

Let’s discuss the results of our project and implication for future IA research and practice together with German and international IA practitioners, legislators and academics at a virtual conference. Register here!

The research project is implemented by the Institute for Landscape Development, Recreation and Conservation Planning (ILEN) at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna. The project was commissioned by the German Environment Agency and financed with federal funds as part of the departmental research plan. For more information on the research project, click here.
