4 markets in the Economic System:
1. The Labour market
2. The Financial market
3. The Goods market
4. The Services market

Economics 1. All markets interact => increasing
inter-dependence!2. Increasing integration across
scales (geographically, vertically)3. Economics: explains how
markets function/are connected (micro-, sector-, macro-level (systems-) analyses eg CGE)
![Page 7: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Economic analysisProduction functions:
GDP = f(K,L,H,I; X)
Consumption functions:
C = f(K,L,H,I; X)
K=physical capital, L=labour, H=Human capital, I=institutions, X=other factors (innovation, technology etc.)
Prices: Supply, Demand analysis
![Page 8: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Environmental Economics acknow-ledges links with Environment:
GDP=f(K,L,H,I,E; X) C=f(K,L,H,I,E; X)
State of Environment:E=f(GDP,C; soil, water, climate, geology etc;X)
Prices: affect E; are affected by E

SEA
![Page 22: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
SEA
• What is SEA?
- Objectives
- Principles
• Strategic actions? tiering
• Different kinds (models) of SEA
• Why SEA? Advantages, disadvantages?
![Page 23: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What is SEA?
• ”SEA is a systematic process for evaluating the env consequences of porposed policy, plan or program initiatives in order to ensure they are fully included and appropriately addressed at the earliest appropriate stage of decisionmaking on par w. economic and social considerations” (Sadler and Verheem, 1996)
![Page 24: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
SEA objectives, principles
• Improve strategic action• Promote stakeholder participation• Focus on key env/sustainability constraints• Identify the best option• Minimize neg. (env) impacts, optimize
positive impacts, compensate losses• Ensure PPP do not exceed limits (carrying
capacity, irreversible effects etc.)
![Page 25: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Strategic actions, tiering
• Strategic actions:
- mega-projects
- programs (sector)
- plans (spatial)
- policies (sector, national, legislation)
• Tiering, across:– geographic scales– Strategic actions:
![Page 26: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Advantages of SEA
1. Begins earlier
2. Deals with impacts that are difficult to consider at the project level
3. Promotes a better coordination of alternatives
4. Informs decisionmakers about env impacts of the proposed strategic actions
5. Facilitates public participation in decision-making
![Page 27: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Disadvantages with SEA
1. Takes time and $
2. Still a relatively new process
3. Baselines may not be available
4. Needs to cope w. a huge range of decision-making situations (appropriate?)
5. Only one part of decision-making …

SEA – Different Approaches
1. “Linear” (impact-centered) SEA
2. “Non-linear” (institutions-centered) SEA
3.SEA at the Policy level (concepts and some examples)
4. Understand ”Institutions” (vs organisations)
5. Discuss Adaptive and Inclusive SEA Approaches
![Page 36: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
2. Decision-making - the Rational Model (-the linear approach, 5 steps):
1. Determine the problem
2. Establish preferences
3. List all options or alternatives
4. Gather all relevant information
5. Make a choice that max./optimizes the likelihood of achieving goals.
![Page 37: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Mini discussion
Think of a Policy process or strategicplanning in your country (2 min.)
Discuss with neighbour (5 min.):•What were the features of the process?•How & to what extent were environm. issues addressed in the policy •How did people participate?
![Page 38: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Policy reforms and potential environment linkages
Policy area Reform Env. benefits Env. risks Measures to
enhance env. benefits and
mitigate risks Energy Fuel price
reform, removal of subsidies.
Reduced emissions through increased production and consumption efficiency.
Removal of subsidies could lead to increased demand for fuel wood.
Property right reforms to reduce deforestation in search for fuel wood.
Agriculture Land reform. Strengthened property rights improves NRM.
Shrinking common property resources are overused by landless.
Ensure landless are considered. Enhance fertilizer, pesticide use.
Private sector development
Business climate issues, taxation and protection of property rights, privatisation.
Increased competition and use of price signals generally improve resource use efficiency.
Weak legal env. framework can lead to over-exploitation of NRs & more pollution.
Ensure adequate legal framework, monitoring and enforcement.
![Page 39: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Policy reforms and potential environment linkages (c’ed)
Policy area Reform Env. benefits Env. risks Measures to enhance
env. benefits and mitigate risks
Tax reform Changed tax on income, assets, consumption, companies etc.
Pos. changes in households’/firms’ behavior.
Neg./adverse changes in households’/firms’ behavior.
Env fiscal reforms (tax on pollution, resources) can internalise env. costs, increase efficiency & tax incomes.
Decentralization Power to regional or local administration to increase efficiency, service delivery, accountability.
Accountable, representative local institutions can improve management of NRs.
Poor capacity to deal with env. & NR issues. Local elites exploit local NRs
Capacity-building to strengthen local and regional administration.
Trade Trade reform Increased competition => improved NR use, reduced pollution.
More monocultures, Increased fertilizer, pesticide use, pollution; pressures on forests, or wetlands etc.
Improve env. legislation to avoid pollution havens.
![Page 40: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
1. Planning at strategic levels is not linear! It’s a complex process, influenced by interest groups with conflicting interests and different agendas => look for ‘windows of opportunity’ to initiate SEA during cycles of the decision-making process.
2. Relationships between alternative options and environmental effects are often indirect => Emphasize relevance vis-à-vis stakeholders (e.g. politicians, gov. agencies, civil society etc.).
3. Strategic issues cannot be tackled by a one-off analysis;
=> Adjust SEA approach as the Policy takes shape and is implemented.
Experiences from Env. Integration
![Page 41: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Difficult to achieve rational, linear environmental assessment in reality since:
people are limited information processors; policy-makers are not unitary/homogenous actors with clear and stable preferences (multiple actors w. multiple & conflicting goals); it is difficult or impossible to define a problem clearly at the policy level (many different views, uncertainty on env impacts!).
Experiences from Env. Integration
![Page 42: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Env., econ & social issues linked – Integration necessary at the policy level
• Envl. Issues– Pollution– Env.-rel. disease– NR depletion– Extinction– Habitat Loss– Distorted eco-
system functions
• Social & econ. Issues– Poor public health– Involuntary
Resettlement– Deprivation of Rights– Gender inequality– Vulnerability, conflict– Loss of Social capital,
economic values
![Page 43: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Globalization/regionalization
Requires new solutions, increased scope (EU, MEA, WTO)
Need to move env. assessment upstream in decision process (local national, global)
Powerful policy tools beyond project level (e.g. Env Fiscal Reform)
![Page 44: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Shift in Focus of Env. Assessment
Impact assessment
Focus on technical solutions
Stakeholder consultn
Attention to projects
Upstream analysis
Focus on policies and institutions
Stakeholder particip.
Attention to country capacity

Adaptive Management (1)Adaptive Management (1)
No formula, key elements:
•Multiple decision points (timing!)
•Management objectives regularly revisited & revised (adjust!)
• A range of management choices (prioritize!)
![Page 50: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Adaptive Management (2)
• Monitor & evaluate outcomes (not activities!)
• Institutionalize mechanisms for learning (social, technical, organizational)
• Create structure for broad & collaborative stakeholder participation (not one-off consultation!)
![Page 51: Introduction to SEA and Systems Analysis (2) – Focus: Environment & Economics Anders Ekbom Environmental Economics Unit Dept of Economics University of](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022102818/56649d3f5503460f94a18b96/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Inclusive Management (1)
