    Författare :Panate Manomaivibool; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Extended producer responsibility EPR ; Waste electrical and electronic equipment WEEE ; End-of-life vehicle ELV ; Policy transfer; Programme evaluation; Product policy; Waste management; Recycling;

    Sammanfattning : Policy transfer of complex interventions often falls into the trap of uninformed, incomplete, and/or inappropriate transfer because the interventions are insufficiently identified with some of their perceived core components. This is no exception in the interspatial learning about extended producer responsibility (EPR) programmes. LÄS MER

  3. 27. Advancing Bioenergy in Europe: Exploring bioenergy systems and socio-political issues

    Författare :Kes McCormick; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
