COOPERATIVE NETWORK FOR ENVIRONMENTAL RISK ANALYSIS STUDIES: THE CASE OF THE MIDDLE EAST REGION

摘要

The role of regional networks for applying Environmental Risk Analysis (ERA) in order to promote environmental and human security is analysed in this paper. These networks should take national and regional approaches and have a multidisciplinary view, and implement a financing strategy, a training policy for specialists and technicians according to specific needs and a social policy for informing and sensitising citizens, and encouraging policies of prevention. The case of a specific network to be developed in the Middle East is further discussed.
