Presentation of a new index to communicate environmental improvement

In recent years, the complexity of environmental and regulatory data has made it difficult for local authorities to coordinate and communicate their actions effectively. To respond to this challenge, the WA2NNA-BEST index, developed by the LIFE HELP project, will be presented in Rome on 18 June 2025: a self-assessment tool designed to support EMAS municipalities and local administrations in monitoring and communicating environmental performance. The index covers six thematic areas – air, water, waste, noise, biodiversity, energy/climate – and is based on scientifically sound indicators that are consistent with current regulations. The conference will illustrate how this tool can simplify environmental communication, strengthen transparency towards citizens, encourage the exchange of good practices and contribute to achieving the objectives of the 2030 Agenda

Jun 02, 2025 — Jun 06, 2025 Geneva

Taking place from 2 to 6 June 2025, in Geneva, Switzerland, the Eighth Session of the Global Platform for Disaster Risk Reduction (GP2025) is organized and convened by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR). The theme of GP2025 is “Every day matters, acting for resilience today”. The United Nations General Assembly recognizes the Global Platform as a global multi-stakeholder forum to review progress in the implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction. At the Platform, Governments, the United Nations system and all relevant stakeholders come together to share knowledge and discuss the latest developments and trends in disaster risk reduction, identify gaps and make recommendations to further accelerate the implementation of the Sendai Framework.

The GP2025 agenda will be guided by the Sendai Framework, in particular its objective, the four priorities for action and the seven global targets, as well as the key priorities identified in the mid-term review of the Sendai Framework, the GP2022 Co-Chairs' Synthesis and the Regional Platforms meetings held in 2024.

International environmental cooperation, MASE – ISPRA technical document
International environmental cooperation, MASE – ISPRA technical document
Jun 04, 2025

Simplify, rationalize and standardize the processes and tools for managing international environmental cooperation activities, providing a methodological tool useful for managing projects and programs in a clear and unambiguous manner, with precise indicators for monitoring results and evaluation models aligned with international practices.

This is the target of the publication; Towards a Monitoring & Evaluation framework for international environmental cooperation: the Italian Ministry of Environment and Energy Security as a case-study”.

The document was realized as the first output of an operational agreement between ISPRA and the Italian Ministry of the Environment and Energy Security (MASE) signed in 2021, in response to the need of MASE to rationalize and standardize processes and methods in the management of its projects through the use of shared methodologies and tools in the monitoring, evaluation and reporting phases of environmental cooperation initiatives financed by MASE.

Preview at Flowpath 2025: the new Hydrogeological Map of Italy at 1:500,000 scale
Jun 11, 2025 — Jun 13, 2025 Torino

ISPRA will present the new Hydrogeological Map of Italy (CII500K), the cartography that maps the country's groundwater, during the scientific conference Flowpath 2025, scheduled in Turin from 11 to 13 June. This is an important milestone for the knowledge, management and protection of groundwater at a national level.

The CII500K was born from an intense collaboration between ISPRA and the University of Milan - Department of Earth Sciences "Ardito Desio", as part of a research agreement aimed at systematizing and harmonizing regional hydrogeological knowledge on a national scale, and was also achieved thanks to both the scientific and economic contribution of the CARG Project.
