Summary

A considerable and rapidly growing portion of Ukrainian (UA) environmental policies is developed based on the EU experience. Although the EU environmental policy package is one of the strongest in the world, it works only if fully implemented and enforced, and for this, especially if using it outside the EU, advanced understanding of the EU policy context and policy instruments are essential. This problem is not explicitly recognised by national qualification frameworks in UA, and it is not addressed by curricula at most HEIs providing tertiary education in the field of environment. The overall aim of INENCY is therefore to develop and disseminate a module focusing on gaps in educational provision as regards EU environmental & sustainability policy instruments.
