ACTeon
ACTeon is a research and consultancy company specialised in the the development and implementation of environmental policy. Its expertise lies with the „soft“ elements of policy development, i.e. economic analyses, social assessments, integrated approaches, institutional assessments, participatory processes and mediation.
From a single person business in 2003, it is today developing in an active European network, working mostly in France and Central and Eastern Europe. Activities have also been initiated in the Mediterranean basin.
ACTeon has developed a unique expertise in the field of water policy and management at European, country and regional/river basin scales. In particular, it is playing a leading role in supporting the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive – providing support to the setting up of methodologies, the development of technical and socio-economic assessments, the animation of participatory stakeholder processes… or the link between assessments and policy making in the context of the preparation of River Basin Management Plans (RBMP).
ACTeon is also very active in supporting the convergence between agriculture and the environment. It is developing tools for assessing the environmental and economic impact of different (agriculture and water) policy scenarios. And it provides support to the development of strategies and plans that enhance the integration of agriculture and the environment.
More recently, it has enlarged its expertise base and initiated activities into new environmental policy areas, in particular (i) (renewable) energy and eco-building, (ii) rural development (territorial diagnosis as support to sustainable development strategies), (iii) nature protection and biodiversity (including the protection of wetlands) and (iv) marine/coastal areas.
