INECE Develops Common Definitions
for Environmental Compliance and Enforcement Indicators
March, 2004 - Following the conclusion of the INECE-OECD Workshop
on Environmental Compliance and Enforcement (ECE) Indicators,
an Expert Working Group of Workshop participants formed to
create a glossary
of "common definitions" of ECE indicator terminology.
The glossary, intended for use by ECE practitioners worldwide,
provides key definitions for terms including "indicator,"
"logic
model," "outcome
indicator," and "compliance
promotion." The Web-based glossary serves as a dynamic
document to facilitate possible future additions of terms,
definitions, and country examples. Please send suggestions
for inclusion to inece@inece.org
for consideration by the Working Group.
