The Center for Thematic Environmental Networks (TEN) is a Center for education and research in the fields of environment and sustainable development. TEN Center promotes the exchange of knowledge and information on the environmental field and offers tools and supplementary approaches in order to solve environmental issues with specific reference to sustainable development. TEN Center:  promotes education and advanced training programs on sustainable development and environmental management;  develops research activities on the main areas of environmental protection, with specific focus on developing countries;  hosts initiatives which provide a meeting platform for the competent authorities, researchers and those who are involved in environmental and sustainable development issues. Since 2003, TEN manages and coordinates advanced training programs devised for director generals and managers of public administrations, researchers and private sector experts from the People’s Republic of China and Eastern European countries. The aim is to augment and improve the capabilities of policy-makers and to facilitate knowledge transfer in order to promote sustainable environmental, social and economic policies.

24. What is DIVAS The priority objective : development of a standard methodology for SEA The end user: the personnel working in technical offices and the administrators of municipalities Methodological approach: is based on a flowchart that follows the indications provided by Directive 42/2001/EEC , updated, where possible by Legislative Decree 152/2006 (and subsequent amendments). 2.2 METHODOLOGY DIVAS has been developed as a DSS (Decision Support System), i.e. a system that provides the decision-maker with a set of analysis functions and models to improve the efficacy and efficiency of the decision-making model.

Collecting data: Cognitive framework 2.3 GUIDANCE and SETTING In the Veneto Region the format of the data collection si known as “Cognitive Framework” , according to the provisions of art. 50 of Regional Law of 23 April, 2004, no. 11 and to Veneto Region Deliberation no. 3178 of 8 October, 2004; Implementation of the Cognitive Framework is based on researches carried out in the competent organizations, on the reviewing and processing of paper documents available in technical offices and on computer-based validation ; The Cognitive Framework build-up is achieved by means of a GIS, i.e. a software which is able to directly relate data to data with a heterogeneous nature in order to compare and process them yielding fresh information.

110. CarboMark: a voluntary alternative to compensation Recent data concerning the implementation of Kyoto Protocol demonstrate that strategies adopted until now have not enough contributed to mitigate the increasing of GHG in atmosphere and the climatic change. While technological innovation related to the emissions' reduction is still to come, the offset of CO2 from forests could constitute a temporary but important strategy for mitigating the effects of high GHG concentration on climate change. The CarboMark market will trade credits from a wide set of agro-forestry activities, including forest management, long lived wood products and urban forestry with the aim of reducing Green House Gas emissions. A carbon credit is an intangible commodity generated by an activity that absorbs carbon dioxide or avoids other GHG emissions. The main feature of the market is that carbon credits will be generated by activities carried out at the local level. CarboMark is a pilot action for a local voluntary carbon market ASSUMPTION THE PROJECT

112. Adoption of Sustainable Energy Action Plan A commitment towards Europe’s energy and climate policy 29 January 2008 in the second edition of the European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW 2008), the European Commission launched The Covenant of Mayors a volunteer initiative to actively involve European cities in the path towards sustainability and environmental efficiency.

117. Which assessment procedure apply? SEA not required under the SEA Directive, but consider whether the object might instead fall within the scop of the EIA Directive SEA only required Consider whether joint EIA/SEA procedure would be appropriate Consider whether parallel procedures might be appropriate Consider how tiering arrangements can be maximised SEA PLAN/PROGRAMME EIA PROJECT
