Abstract
Trends and Indicators for Monitoring the EU Thematic
Strategy on Sustainable Development of Urban Environment
(TISSUE) belonged to the 6th framework programme area
"Integrating and Strengthening the European Research
Area". The overall goal of the project was the following:
1. to analyse demand and define appropriate trends which
should be measured to properly determine progress towards
sustainable development of the urban environment at local
level;
2. to carry out comparative research on existing sets of
indicators;
3. to define the set-up needed for a harmonised set or
subset of indicators;
4. to collect indicators and structure the indicators
into a database.
TISSUE outlined the urban indicators considering the
following main areas: sustainable urban transport,
sustainable urban design, sustainable urban construction,
sustainable urban management and sustainable urban
environment (energy, emissions, air quality, noise,
wastes, biodiversity).
