The co-ordination of different sector policies with respect to sustainable development is one the challenges planning, and particularly spatial planning. To fulfil this challenge successfully, planning must ensure full integration assessment environmental, social economic issues. Linking strategic environmental (SEA) being considered as a crucial condition for sound development, an important opportunity move ‘sustainability’ up ladder decision making. A research proposal suggested based on...
In this paper I advocate SEA as an instrument of change towards more sustainable patterns behaviour and development, by following strategic thinking constructive approaches. recommend that the future research agenda should contribute to make a matured, full-fleshed with clear identity, coherent functions forms. This may be achieved exploring how engage all actors in fundamental new attitude understanding addressing complexity processes, enabling dialogues mutual understanding, offering...
The global environmental crisis underscores the need for transformative change in how development impacts are managed, and biodiversity is preserved. This study explores integration of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) Impact (EIA) within spatial planning infrastructure projects, emphasizing evolving role these instruments promoting both mitigation enhancement impacts. Traditionally, SEAs EIAs have focused on minimizing negative through hierarchy; however, this research advocates a...
This article explores the concept of SEA follow-up, addressing first its complexity at level strategic decision-making. To deal with this complexity, a multi-track approach is proposed. will allow for use those methods, moments and information that prove to be useful in specific case. Some preliminary guidance given on how devise an follow-up programme using stepwise approach. Far from attempting provide any prescriptive direction about carry out seeks articulate key concepts lessons gained...
ABSTRACT Perhaps like few other industries, tourism depends and is built on environmental, physical cultural local resources. In this sense, as suggested by the scientific community international agencies, sustainability should be a driver for sector development. For purpose, three main issues are relevant: interpretation of meaning reflected in vision destination sector; stakeholders' participation, balancing different approaches; strategic planning that calls long‐term view action. The aim...
Abstract In a world in growing turbulence, complexity and uncertainty, where crisis is becoming the norm rather than exception, resilience increasingly seen as critical feature that reflects capacity of system to absorb disturbance reorganize without collapsing. Resilient systems are more adaptable change, able learn less vulnerable external shocks (e.g. natural phenomena, economic crises or political shifts). The theories re-emerging field research practice with application socio-ecological...
This paper aims to contribute the understanding of potential Social Innovation (SI) for social transformation. Being a popular concept, SI has been discussed decades, increasingly recognized its complexity. A systematic review literature on was undertaken understand state-of-the-art, evolution concept and core underpinnings in order meet research aim this paper. The is relatively broad relation general characteristics contexts where it happening, but use ‘social innovation’ term often...
