Research Problem The lack of a spatial dimension in Cost-Benefit Analysis limits the ability to make policy decisions Research Objective To develop a method and associated tools to incorporate a spatial dimension into the policy making process
Why we want a spatial dimension? • To better understand the effects of the project • To allow public participation • To generate more indicators for decision-making (NVP/population) and support not only economic factors
DISCUSS: • Analysis follows CBA • It is not a technical system producing a final results • The main objective is to identify effects and regions where discrepancies between stakeholders exist
