Environmental Policy Integration – Conceptual Foundations and Performance Evaluations

Abstract

This panel explores the evolution of the concept of EPI since its emergence in policy communities in the 1980s, in theory and as applied in various policy areas, geographical contexts and levels of governance. It invites analysis of how conceptual foundations may have stayed intact or changed, in light of emerging discourses such as green economy, resilience, transformation, etc. The panel also invites analysis and review of what we know about the performance of EPI and what are key barriers and success factors. It also explores methodologies and criteria for evaluating EPI in process and in policy outcome.
