WTO Ministerial Conferences' site events represent unique occasions for trade and environment experts to meet and exchange opinions. Large numbers of high level policy makers, researchers and academics as well as representatives from civil society groups from all over the world come together to discuss recent developments in the area, conflicts between trade, environment and sustainable development, and potential solutions. Ecologic participated in a number of the site events at the Seattle Ministerial and reported their outcomes to the German Federal Environmental Agency.

The strain placed on the environment by the tourism industry has grown drastically from year to year. At the same time, however, efforts have also been increasing at national and international levels to reduce this negative impact. In view of the significance of cross-border tourism, such efforts can only be successful within the framework of international co-operation.

"Trade and Environmental Protection" represents a cross-cutting issue area that must be simultaneously handled at different political levels. This book describes and analyses the institutional structures that are necessary for addressing trade and environment issues and indentifies integration strategies. In addition to being relevant to international policy-making, the topic covered in this book also reflects an area of special interest and activity at Ecologic.

In this study, Ecologic reviewed the development of Bulgaria's environmental quality and provided an overview of the development of Bulgaria's environmental policy, including its legal foundations and environmental policy instruments. The analysis' main focus was on progress and existing deficits in Bulgaria's adoption of the European Union's environmental Acquis communautaire. On this basis, the analysis also identified areas in which extensive advising and investments by bilateral and multilateral institutions were needed to support Bulgaria in the area of environmental policy as it moves toward European Union membership. The study was prepared for experts in national environmental administrations and multilateral institutions.

The Eastern enlargement of the EU poses major challenges for German and European environmental policy. On the one hand, the process of political and economic transformation in the countries of Central and Eastern Europe offers a unique opportunity to substantially improve the state of the environment in the whole of Europe. On the other hand, there is a serious risk that the level of environmental protection will suffer – perhaps even that which has already been achieved so far will be undone - if an 'environmentally friendly' political strategy of Eastern enlargement should fail.

Ecologic collected, compared and evaluated the practical experiences of EU Member States with implementing the environmental integration principle. Furthermore, Ecologic assessed to what extent these experiences could be used by other States. The aim of the study was to analyse the existing and planned national administrative structures for sustainable development.
