SOER 2015 Part B – Thematic SOE informationOverall Objective To provide an overview of the state of environment at European level for a selection of key environmental themes – and to publish accessible and credible environmental information.

  4. SOER 2015 Part B – Thematic SOE informationThree Specific Objectives • To provide a comprehensive thematic overviewof the European environment’s status, trends (and prospects) to support European decision-making and implementation of European environmental policies. • To cluster and summarise EEA knowledge on key environmental challenges and themes in a concise and accessible format, serving as an entry point to the more detailed data, indicators and assessments in the EEA information and knowledge base. • To provide a baseline for policy debateson specific environmental issues, based on the 2020 objectives set out in the general Union Environment Action Programme to 2020 (‘7EAP’).

  5. SOER 2015 Part B – Thematic SOE informationTarget audiences • The primary audience for SOER 2015 Part B are specialists, and informed or interested non-specialists, that want to get a short overview of policy context, successes, and challenges of specific environmental issues. • The primary target audience of Part B are therefore EU decision-makers and EU policy-influencers with an interest in thematic environmental issues. • SOER 2015 Online will provide a vehicle for attracting secondary audiences with SOER 2015 Part B to EEA’s thematic web-pages, indicators, reports and assessments.

  6. SOER 2015 Part B – Thematic SOE informationSelection of topics for part B fiches • The four criteria are: • a) Are they relevant to European policy, in particular the priorities set out in the 7th EAP and the Europe 2020 strategy? • b) Do they collectively provide a reasonably comprehensive overview of the European environment’s status, trends and prospects? • c) Do we have indicators to support an analysis of the issue? • d) Do they help succinctly explain key concepts and themes that are used in SOER 2015?
