Institute for Environmental Policy
is an analytical unit of the Ministry of the Environment of the Slovak Republic. The mission of IEP is to provide a high quality and reliable environmental analysis and forecasts for the Slovak government and public. IEP publishes publicly:
- The IEP Working Papers are, along with the comments, the main IEP analytical publications. Economic analysis examine the problem in detail and contain recommendations for "policy makers". Analysis are generally longer (30+ pages) for the wider public.
- The IEP Policy briefs is short work materials, mostly written in response to a current issue. These are information documents intended for the general public and the media. Comments may contain recommendations.
In addition, we publish the IEP presentations at workshops and conferences, or the data sources on which our analysis are based. The opinions of the authors can not be identified with the official position of the MoE SR.
