Implementing Insect Production in Agricultural Value Chains - An ex-ante life cycle evaluation KU Leuven
An ever-growing demand for animal based food products is affecting the productivity of global food production systems, and urgently needed measures to curb further environmental degradation promise similar effects. Whether future demand scenarios can be met sustainably, depends not least on whether it is possible to significantly reduce the environmental impact of aquaculture and livestock production. Recent research suggests that the use of ...
Ex-ante evaluation of Longer and Heavier Vehicles in Flanders – a driving simulator study Universiteit Hasselt
Background: The Flemish government is considering the implications of allowing the use of Longer and Heavier Vehicles (LHVs) for road freight transport. These megatrucks can measure up to 25.25m (instead of 18.75m) and weight up to 60 tons (instead of 44 tons). Such trucks are already in circulation in some of the EU Member States (e.g. Sweden, the Netherlands). This driving simulator study is part of a pilot project that’s investigating the ...

Putting measures of individual well-being to use for ex-ante policy evalutation KU Leuven
© 2017, The Author(s). Most studies using microsimulation techniques have considered the effect of potential reforms on the income distribution. However, it has become increasingly recognized, both at the academic and political level, that focusing purely on income provides a limited picture of social progress. We illustrate how ex-ante policy evaluation can be performed in terms of richer concepts of individual well-being, such as subjective ...
