摘要 | The EPI-Water project aims to assess the effectiveness and the efficiency of Economic Policy Instruments in achieving water policy goals and to identify the preconditions under which they complement or perform better than alternative (e.g., regulatory or voluntary) policy instruments. First project results are available for download. BackgroundEPIs have received widespread attention over the last three decades, and have increasingly been implemented to achieve environmental policy objectives. However, whereas EPIs have been successfully applied in some policy domains (such as climate, energy and air quality), their application to tackle water management issues (drought/water scarcity, floods, water quality control) are beset by many practical difficulties. Thus, an assessment of the effectiveness and efficiency of EPIs for water management issues and the identification of relevant preconditions is of particular importance to help to overcome these difficulties. Main objectivesThe main objectives of the EPI-Water FP7 project are to assess the effectiveness and the efficiency of Economic Policy Instruments in achieving water policy goals, and to identify the preconditions under which they complement or perform better than other (e.g. regulatory) policy instruments. The specific objectives of the project include:
Ecologic Institute in EPI-WaterEPI-Water is organized as seven integrated work packages (WP). WP1 is the project management work package, the WPs 2-5 related to the scientific assessment and application of EPIs, WP 6 aims to link policy and stakeholder engagement, while WP7 includes the dissemination and communication strategy. Ecologic Institute leads WP3, which includes the review of empirical evidence, experiences and lessons learned from EPIs (ex-post implementation). Following the assessment framework (developed in WP2), the implementation and performance of a diverse range of EPIs are analyzed and comparatively assessed in innovative case studies (EU and non-EU). Furthermore, Ecologic Institute plays an important role in all remaining work packages. As of March 2012, Ecologic Institute has completed the following deliverables:
Additional deliverables, including all the case studies that have been conducted in the third phase of the project (WP3) are available on the project website. |
