In 2004, the prime ministers of the Visegrad countries met in Kroměříž to consider the destiny of Visegrad cooperation. Visegrad countries had by then met the goals that had brought them together thirteen years earlier within the Visegrad Group. This famous return to Europe was completed through successful accession negotiations with the European Union, and raised the question of further cooperation in the group. The 2004 summit resolved this question in a positive way. It was decided that Visegrad cooperation would not just continue; its agenda was enriched by a new issue. “The Visegrad Group countries are ready to use their unique regional and historical experience to contribute to shaping and implementing the European Union’s policies towards the countries of Eastern and Southeastern Europe.” The International Visegrad Fund has become an important tool in supporting this plan. Step by step, new mobility and grant programs focusing on Eastern and Southeastern Europe have been established. In 2011, the Visegrad 4 Eastern Partnership program was approved at a prime ministers’ summit in Bratislava. V4EaP is now the biggest program that the Fund has ever run outside the Visegrad region. At times we may hear the reproach that the Fund should focus its activities within the Visegrad region rather than outside it. No doubt the main mission of the Fund remains the strengthening of the internal cohesion of the region but, on the other hand, there are good reasons why the Fund should pay more attention to non- Visegrad countries. One of these reasons lies at the historical and ethical levels. When the V4 countries stood at the threshold of the transformation process, they could rely on help from Western countries willing to share their know-how, just as they provided material help. I think it is time for us to try to pay this historical debt forward and help our neighbors. At the same time, this is our visible contribution to the EU’s endeavor to broaden the belt of stability and 2000 2006 2010 2011 2012 prosperity in Europe. This is also a significant contribution to ourselves—to the V4 region—because it is unwise to enjoy one’s own welfare without addressing the problems that one’s neighbors may be facing. The new program also represents an interesting opportunity for V4 NGOs to develop and intensify their activities in the countries involved in the Eastern Partnership. Not only can they strengthen their capacities, but also look for and engage with new local partners. The broader and more intensive this cooperation is, the better. New opportunities lay ahead. Let’s use them well. April 2012 Executive Director www.visegradfund.org/media/logo 4 5 » contents staff about International Visegrad Fund | Mezinárodní visegrádský fond | Nemzetközi Visegrádi Alap | Międzynarodowy Fundusz Wyszehradzki | Medzinárodný vyšehradský fond director/deputy director The International Visegrad Fund is an international organization established by the governments of the Visegrad Group (V4) countries—the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia—in 2000. Seated in Bratislava, the Petr Vágner Executive Director Fund has the status of an international organization accredited by the Slovak foreign ministry. The Fund’s main Zbigniew Machej Deputy Executive Director mission is fostering closer contacts and deeper cooperation among people in the region and the development of civil society primarily in Central and Eastern Europe, the Western Balkans and the South Caucasus. The Fund financially supports common grant projects and awards individual mobility projects (scholarships and artist secretariat residencies). By the end of 2011 the Fund granted nearly 3,400 projects and over 1,300 individual scholarships and residencies in the total amount of nearly €39 million. Kristína Ácsová Project Coordinator: Standard Grants Viktória Bódisová Assistant Main recipients of the funding are NGOs and non-profit organizations, municipalities and local governments, Lenka Bučková Project Coordinator schools and universities, research institutions but also individual citizens and private companies.

For the first section an Environmental Impact Assessment was performed based on the formal requirement issued in October 2008. The respective environmental permit was issued in December 2009. For the other sections on the basis of the preliminary environmental study, the Competent Authority decided to screen-out these sections of the project from completing a full EIA procedure in March 2010. The European Commission has approved the related application for funding from the Cohesion Fund. On this basis, the EIA process is acceptable for the Bank.

Jel-kód: Q01 Q23, Q28, öSSzeFoglaló megállaPÍtáSok, következtetÉSek, JavaSlatok az ipari forradalom hajnalán egész európában nagy méretű erdőirtás kezdődött. a Habsburg-udvar gazdaságpolitikája miatt magyarországot jobban érintette a fo- lyamat, mint a birodalom többi részét. a 18. századi hamuzsírlázhoz kapcsolódó ex- tenzív erdőirtások után a kormányzat megpróbálta szabályozni az erdők védelmét, és a saját eszközeivel támogatta az alternatív energiaforrások feltárását is. a gazda- sági motiváció azonban erősebb volt a szabályozásnál. az erdőirtás nagy erővel foly- tatódott az ipari forradalom energiaigényének kielégítésére. a folyamatot közgazdasági szempontból úgy értelmezhetjük, hogy a fakivágás után az erdők pótlásának költségét a következő generációkkal fizettették meg. ezért volt olcsó energiaforrás a fa az ipari forradalom idején. magyarországon a törvényhozó az 1879-es törvényben megpróbálkozott azzal, hogy az előző nemzedékek által hátrahagyott költségeket a területek aktuális tulaj- donosaival fizettessék meg. a nemzetközi gyakorlatból és a későbbi megoldásokból is az látszik, hogy a károk hatásainak felszámolását az állam finanszírozta. a rekul- tivációval azonban európában elbillent az erdők aránya a fenyvesek felé. magyaror- szágon is többször felhívták a figyelmet a szakemberek a monokultúrás telepítések hátrányaira. az 1993-as pilisvörösvári nagy erdőtűz rámutatott a fenyvesekkel járó közvetlen veszélyekre, ezután már lombos fákat telepítettek a kopárokra. az erdőirtások története arra hívja fel a figyelmet, hogy vannak olyan negatív externáliák, amelyeket a tevékenység végzésének idején nem lehet azonosítani. ezek- ben az esetekben nem megoldás az a törekvés, hogy internalizáljuk az externáliákat. erre a problémára a gazdasági tevékenységekre vonatkozó általános környezeti adó adhat megoldást.
