Project description
The objective of this study was to provide a toolbox to stakeholders planning to reform Environmental Harmful Subsidies (EHS) in the EU or in the member states of the EU which enables them to make an evidence-based case for the reform or abolition of the subsidies.
Metroeconomica was responsible for participating in the identification of low hanging fruit, providing the information needed for reform or abolition of those EHS and then summarise all the information in a toolbox that enables stakeholders to identify the examples of EHS, reform approaches and other information most useful to their specific reform project.
