Facilitating and inspiring the preparation of holistic state-of-the-environment reporting by the Flemish Environment Department

This project aims to facilitate and support the preparation of holistic state-of-the-environment reporting ('omgevingsrapportage'). University of Antwerp inspires the holistic state-of-the-art environment reporting by interviewing internal and external stakeholders and by bringing together good practices based on document analysis. The information gathered is analysed and interpreted and leads to - amongst others - the identification of basic conditions for good holistic state-of-the environment reporting and presenting a number of (if-then) scenarios for holistic state-of-the-environment reporting in Flanders. The results of this project aim to inspire the commissioner in drafting an executive order and the multi-anual work programme. Given the submission dates of these documents, to know: autumn 2021 for the executive order and end of 2021 for the multi-annual work programme, the project foresees in-between feedback loops on the results.
