In this Section you will learn about….
 What are environmental impacts in relation to
the TDA?
 What are socio-economic impacts in relation to
the TDA?
 A process for determining environmental and
socio-economic impacts

+ In the Context of the TDA/SAP
process….
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
Are the effects of a transboundary problem on the
integrity of an ecosystem
SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACTS
Are a change in the welfare of people attributable
to the transboundary problem or its environmental
impacts.

+
For Example
TRANSBOUNDARY PROBLEM
Eutrophication
SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT
Loss of income
Loss of food source
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Reduced fish population
SOCIO-ECONOMIC IMPACT
Health impacts from
drinking water
INDIRECT
DIRECT

+
Nutrients emitted
(point and diffuse)
Impacts felt
Example of a
Transboundary Problem
and Impacts:
Dnieper River Basin

+
Black Sea Dead Zone
Evolution of the NW Shelf ‘Dead
Zone’
Decline in the Phyllophora beds
on the NW Shelf

+
Example of a
Transboundary
Problem and
impacts:
Mediterranean
Sea
Loss of Habitats
(Loggerhead Turtle
nesting sites)
Loggerhead Turtle
Migration

+
Distribution of Invasive Species and HABs (Source: FREPLATA, 2005)

+
Process for determining impacts
Step 1: Identification
of the environmental
and socio-economic
impacts of each
priority
transboundary
problem
Step 2: Qualitative or
quantitative
description of key
environmental and
socio-economic
impacts

+ Step 1: Identification of the impacts of
each priority transboundary problem
 This step can successfully be accomplished
through a collaborative workshop involving the
TDA Development team
 The workshop can be run during the same
meeting that the transboundary problems are
identified and prioritised

+ Step 2: Description of key environmental
and socio-economic impacts
The purpose of this step is to describe the
problem itself (using available survey data
showing changes over time, etc.) and the
impact of the problem on the environment and
socio-economically

+
Possible Options
of the identified impacts, based on the output
from step 1. (e.g. Dnipro River Basin TDA)Use of simple lists
including maps, graphics and figures (e.g. Rio de
la Plata; Orange Senqu River Basin TDA)
Detailed supporting
text for the impacts
for which data is available, including baseline
data, showing changes over time
The development of
a set of relevant
indicators

+
Analysis of Impacts
All these options are valid and will depend on the
level of data and information available
However, in all cases, the information gathered
should concentrate on the transboundary impacts
although national or localised impacts can also be
described if they are relevant

+
Group Exercise
In groups of five:
 Take one of the priority transboundary problems and
identify:
 The environmental impacts
 The direct and indirect socio-economic consequences
 Identify geographical location(s) of
impacts/consequences
Timing: 30 minutes
