Sustainable economic growth within environmental limits. volume 1: guidance for the east midlands

LUC and GHK have developed a tool for setting environmental limits that local communities and other stakeholders can use. The three-step approach is based on the participation of the local community and other interested stakeholders, such as statutory agencies and businesses. It enables them to debate the use of important national, regional and local environmental assets, and the potential economic and social implications of setting environmental limits. The approach also provides a tool that can usefully support and inform other assessment requirements, such as Sustainability Appraisal/Strategic Environmental Assessment, Habitats Regulations Assessment and Equality Impact Assessment/Health Impact Assessment

Water Demand Analysis within the Pursat River Catchment

MK16 Fostering Evidence-based IWRM in Stung Pursat Catchment (Tonle Sap Great Lake)In order to address water resources issues and develop capacities for implementing IWRM, there is a need for better collaboration between sectors and use of scientific data in decision making.

Baromètre de l’accessibilité numérique en bibliothèque – 2016

Dans le prolongement de l’étude 2014 visant à évaluer le niveau de prise en compte du RGAA par les portails de bibliothèque du territoire national, le Service du livre et de la lecture (SLL – Ministère de la culture et de la communication / Direction générale des Médias et des Industries culturelles) a souhaité reconduire le baromètre de l’accessibilité numérique en lecture publique, en l’appliquant à trois volets : 1er volet : baromètre de l’accessibilité des sites web et portails de bibliothèques ; 2ᵉ volet : baromètre de l’accessibilité des opacs ; 3ᵉ volet : baromètre de l’accessibilité des ressources numériques. Ce baromètre, dont la mise en œuvre a été confiée à la société Tosca consultants, est réalisé en partenariat avec la Fulbi (Fédération des Utilisateurs de Logiciels pour Bibliothèques, Information & Documentation) pour le 2e volet, avec l’association RéseauCarel pour le 3e volet, avec la Bibliothèque nationale de France, la Bibliothèque publique d’information ainsi que l’Association Valentin Haüy (AVH) et BrailleNet pour leur expertise sur les questions d’accès au livre et à l’information des publics empêchés de lire du fait d’un handicap. Chacun des trois volets a fait l’objet d’une sélection de sites et de ressources, et de protocoles spécifiques, validés par le comité de pilotage. Les résultats de ce baromètre sont désormais approuvés par le comité de pilotage
