This course covers
the strategic environmental assessment (SEA) techniques which encompass broader
scope covering urban development as a sector or group of activities. The course
contains background information on the development, theories and principles of
SEA, existing legislation, practice and regulation on SEA, with examples from
different international contexts. The practical aspects of the SEA are
addressed in this course, considering SEA as a set of framework elements to be
built upon existing decision making systems. It illustrates case studies by
implementation of policies, plans and programs (PPP). The
course is therefore designed to provide the knowledge and skills for such
decision-making for implementing the PPP.
