TY - BOOK AU - PARTIDARIO, M.R TI - A strategic advocacy role in SEA for sustainability PY - 2015/// CY - London PB - Imperial College Press KW - strategic thinking KW - strategic environmental assessment KW - sustainability N2 - In this paper I advocate SEA as an instrument of change towards more sustainable patterns of behaviour and development, by following strategic thinking and constructive approaches. I recommend that the future research agenda of SEA should contribute to make SEA a matured, full-fleshed instrument with a clear identity, and coherent functions and forms. This may be achieved by exploring how to engage all actors in a fundamental new attitude in understanding and addressing the complexity of strategic processes, enabling dialogues towards mutual understanding, offering flexibility, ensuring a long-term and large scale perspectives when exploring development options UR - https://doi.org/10.1142/S1464333215500155 ER -
