Consolidated programme 2018 overview

Session teaser

Promoting participation is fundamental in the EU policy. Especially for environmental issues, the participation in decision making is extremely important, as decisions taken now on matters such as climate change, the depletion of resources, and the loss of biodiversity will have long-term consequences that will affect the future generations.

The concept of public participation is also a fundamental principle in environmental law, while the Aarhus Convention (signed by the European Community and its Member States in 1998) gives the public the right to obtain information on environmental issues and participate in decision-making.
