  1. ARTS – Assessment of Regional and Territorial Sensitivity Bernd Schuh (ÖIR) Gödöllő, Hungary 21 and 22 June 2011

  2. Vulnerability Concept Definitions in ARTS • Potential effects (exposure): Which economic, social, and environmental fields could be affected by EU directives? • (Territorial) sensitivity: Which characteristics make a territory potentially affected in its economic, social, and environmental fields? • Impact: Which are the territorial effects of a certain policy given its potential effects and regional sensitivities? • Adaptive capacity: How weak/strong is the ability of a system to adjust to the potential impact? link to governance aspects

  4. Regulative framework Environmental effects Result: Conceptual Model Air – aerial spraying prohibited – Improvement of air quality National Action Plan – Monitoring & Control Implementation process Deducing potential effects from Directives Training Emission Water – efficient application techniques (no aerial spraying, no drift application) – Improvement of water quality Education/awareness Soil – „immission“ decreases – improvement of soil quality (sustainable use of) Pesticides Socio-economic effects Eco-system/Bio-diversity Agricultural production quantity Land use/types of territories – Natura 2000/FFH – special use of land (hospitals, parks, playgrounds) – strong protection Agricultural production quality Input related sectors – pesticide production – spraying equipment Employment Social effects Innovation Recreational value of land Output related sectors – drinking water – fisheries – tourism Quality of Life Human Health positive correlation negative correlation

  5. Manual for practitioners Steps to assess the territorial impact of LPD • The conceptual model : How do a directive affect the development of regions? • Have directives different logical chains in different types of regions ? (Regional Exposure Matrix) • What is the intensity of exposure deriving from an Directive? (Directive Exposure Matrix) • How is the territorial impact of a Directive in European regions? (Calculating the TIM and plausibility checks) • Which regions will be affected in which fields (Mapping)? • What are the policy implications (discussion)? • Writing the minutes
