Learning outcomes
A. Knowledge
1. The student knows the concept and strategy for sustainable and sustainable development, with particular emphasis on the conditions of biosphere sustainability, sustainability of economic activity and sustainability of socio-economic development.
2. The student knows indicators of sustainable and sustainable development and their role in the implementation of this development concept. He knows the specificity of the indicator approach on local communities, as well as cross-cutting indicators and synthetic indicators.
3. The student has knowledge about synthetic indicators of sustainable development expressed in value: Genuine Savings, ISEW and GPI. He knows the modifications of national accounts towards an integrated system of economic and environmental accounts.
4. The student knows synthetic measures of permanent development expressed in physical units: Ecological Footprint, HANPP, measures of material flow intensity
derived from the MIPS concept and the balance of material flows.
5. The student knows and understands the problems associated with the practical implementation of the policy of sustainable and sustainable development at the local, national, European Union level, in the global dimension.
6. The student knows the methods of economic valuation, and in particular the method of conditional valuation, the method of travel cost, the hedonic pricing method. He knows and understands the possibilities of using these methods for the valuation of cultural goods and, above all, for the valuation of non-market goods and services of the natural environment.
7. The student knows the problem of ecological efficiency and economic efficiency in managing the resources of the natural environment. He knows the relationship between reducing pressure on the environment and reducing the intensity of exploitation of its resources and the sustainability of socio-economic development.
