SaveGREEN - Toolkit
for Ensuring Sustainable Use and Management of Green Infrastructure in Strategic Environmental Assessments (SEA) and Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA)
The scope of this deliverable is to propose a toolbox that can be used by SEA and EIA practitioners, environmental authorities, NGOs and other stakeholders when identifying and assessing, in a quantified manner, the impacts on GI caused by certain plans or projects, and when securing the maintenance of ecological connectivity in the area of implementation of these plans or projects. The final purpose of the toolkit is to ensure that future SEA or EIA will require the implementation of prevention, avoidance, mitigation or compensation measures, which adequately safeguard the maintenance or restoration of structural and functional ecological connectivity.
