Some older projects that have been carried out in CUEC:
-
2000–2001 – Project funded by the Czech Ministry of the Environment VaV/310/2/00 „Methodology of environmental performance and prediction assessment by material (as well energy) flows and balances (including hidden flows)”.
-
1998–1999 – MoE funded project “Quantification of environmental damages including its rational internalization“.
-
1997–2001 – UNDP funded project “Towards Sustainability: The Czech Republic. Building National Capacities for Sustainable Development“.
-
1994–1995 – PHARE funded project ”Environmental education for sustainable development”.
-
1999–2001 – EU funded project: Strengthening the Czech Republic’s Preparation for Integration into the EU with Regard to the Environment
-
1994–1997 – UNDP and the Czech Ministry of the Environment funded project “Economic Information and Instruments for Sustainable Development of the Czech Republic”.
Capacity Building for New Forms of Education Towards Sustainable Development and Support of Co-operation among Prague Universities in the Area
Pilot and initiation project: new forms of cooperation among universities are initiated and tested, an open space for new forms of teaching and e-learning is created, creation of an information center started to achieve a better coverage of further aspects of sustainable development in education. New teaching modules were created: Globalization and global problems (CUEC), Environmental economics for non-specialists, Resolving of environmental conflicts by negotiation, tutorial case studies (University of Economics in Prague).
MSM 119000003 Sustainable development - ways towards increasing of public participation for supporting of the Czech Republic sustatainable development trajectory
The aim of the research plan is to achieve active public participation in implementing the principles of sustainable development. The strategy is to determine the critical elements of sustainability of economic and social development of CR with the aim of maintaining reasonable levels of environmental and natural resources, quantifying and determining the indicators of these elements. Similarly, the aim is to specify target community groups and to active promote the concept of sustainable development.
GP402/07/P484 Theoretical analysis of transport regulation
The project focuses on the theory and empirical evidence in the field of optimal passenger transport regulation. The project tries to contribute to the understanding of transport regulation in the consistent methodological framework of welfare economics, by overviewing and extending some recent microeconomic models, which are then calibrated to the case of the Czech Republic.
FRVŠ 1124/2005 Environmental Basics, a Multimedia Textbook for Environmental Education
EnviWiki web-based environmental encyclopaedia – freely accessible at http://www.enviwiki.cz. A flexible framework for active incorporation and practical application of information generated in various discourses.
GA205/04/0582 State assesment of the environment by the material and energy flow analysis
The project focused on analysing incremental material stock in the Czech Republic and energy flow indicators for the Czech Republic for 1990-2003. The NAS indicator first calculated using the so-called direct method.
1C/7/14/04 Material flows and sustainable resource management
The project focused on the assessment of usability of the indicators of material flows for conveying material intensity and the decoupling of environmental pressures and economic performance. Furthermore, it addresses the calculation of output indicators of material flows and their breakdown by sector and environmental media (water, air, soil).
SM/320/1/03 External costs of electricity and heat production in the Czech Republic and methods of their internalisation
The principal goal of the project is the estimation of external costs related with the energy and heat production in the Czech Republic both at the level of particular energy technologies as well as for the CR as a whole.The project will concentrate on the determination of the negativen and positive external effects related to the operation of the energetic systems, their quantification and will propose and analyze particular methods of internalisation.A methodology for the economic evaluation of different energetic installations and systems will be also draught.
