IAIA10:
Transitioning to the Green Economy -- Contributions of Impact Assessment
30th Annual Conference of the International Association for Impact Assessment
6-11 April, 2010
Geneva, Switzerland
Abstract Submission Deadline: 31 August, 2009
To transition toward green economies, assessments must first demonstrate the types of green investments that best fit local, national, and regional environments. Impact assessments have the power to influence and shape green policy, which will in turn play a major role in addressing the global crises. IAIA10 will focus on the following sectors that have the potential for sustainable green investment:
- Agriculture
- Industry
- Tourism
- Cities
- Transport
The objective of IAIA10 is to provide policy makers with tools to help address the global crises. In light of the urgency, the time for action is now. The response by conference participants and IAIA must be both practical and creative.
In addition to engaging theme forums, plenaries, and concurrent sessions, training courses and technical visits will also be offered. For more information on IAIA10 or to be notified of updates, click the IAIA10 link at www.iaia.org or contact impact@iaia.org. |
