The method is based on the expert assessment and comprises three main steps: (1) identification of the independent experts considering their expertise and knowledge of the local context; (2) identification of the local stakeholders based on expert assessment; and (3) analytical categorisation of stakeholders taking into account the professional relationship network. Using forest biomass (bioenergy) production as example, the stakeholder analy- sis is illustrated on the case study of Triglav National Park, which is characterised by a high potential of woody biomass production and a large number of stakeholders involved in land use and management.

  • Republika Slovenija Ustavno Sodišče
    REPUBLIKA SLOVENIJA USTAVNO SODIŠČE U-I-30/95 21.12.1995 DECISION At a session held on 21.12.1995, in a proceeding for assessing constitutionality and legality commenced at the initiative of the Society of Ecologists of Slovenia, of Ljubljana, and Špela Remec- Rekar and others of Bled, the Constitutional Court reached the following decision : The Decree on adopting the building plan of the small industries zone of Spodnje Gorje, morphological unit "U-B15" - region "1.2. - Bled" (Official Gazette RS, no. 79/94 and 22/95), is annulled. Reasoning A. 1. The Society of Ecologists of Slovenia states in the initiative for the assessment of the constitutionality and legality of the impugned building plan that it is a planned and serious intervention in space which, because of the natural attributes (spring water, wetlands and catchment area for Bled lake) requires a much more considered approach, in which the report on the state of the environment as determined by the Environmental Protection Act, is the document starting point. In its opinion, the adopted building plan is also not harmonised with the planning components of the long term plan of the municipality of Radovljica and the medium term plan of the municipality of Radovljica, or its amendments and supplements. In the original text of the long-term plan, the disputed region is claimed to have been classified in the first region of agricultural land, which is legally protected, but in later amendments, through the procedure of amending the planning documents, this land was reclassified into the second region of agricultural land.

  • Some Fact About Slovenia
    Better Electro World Erasmus+ Project ID: 2017-1-TR01-KA202-045805 First project LTT activity Celje, Slovenia, 19th – 23th March 2018 SOME FACT ABOUT SLOVENIA SOME FACT ABOUT SLOVENIA Slovenia is a country in central Europe that was part of Yugoslavia for most of the 20th century. It is a small but topographically diverse country made up of portions of four major European geographic landscapes—the European Alps, the karstic Dinaric Alps, the Pannonian and Danubian lowlands and hills, and the Mediterranean coast. Easily accessible mountain passes (now superseded by tunnels) through Slovenia’s present-day territory have long served as routes for those crossing the Mediterranean and transalpine regions of Europe. The population in Slovenia is around 2.000.000 people. Native language is Slovenian. Money currency is Euro. Capital city is Ljubljana. The Slovenes are a South Slavic people with a unique language. For most of its history, Slovenia was largely controlled by the Habsburgs of Austria, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire and its successor states, the Austrian Empire and Austria-Hungary; in addition, coastal portions were held for a time by Venice. As part of Yugoslavia, Slovenia came under communist rule for the bulk of the post-World War II period. With the dissolution of the Yugoslav federation in 1991, a multiparty democratic political system emerged. Slovenia’s economic prosperity in the late 20th century attracted hundreds of thousands of migrants from elsewhere in the Balkans. In the early 21st century, Slovenia integratedeconomically and politically with western Europe, joining the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as well as the European Union in 2004.
