Overview
"IA TOOLS is an online platform that provides Commission policy actors and impact assessment practitioners throughout Europe with a repository of guidance, information and best practices for the impact assessment of new policies and legislative measures. At one click, the IA TOOLS website provides expert and non-expert with guidance on the main steps to be followed to perform an impact assessment. It contains an inventory of social, economic and environmental impact indicators. It also offers a comprehensive picture of the qualitative and quantitative tools available for the analysis of policies impact as well as access to up-to-date databases. IA TOOLS is structured in four main sections:
- The impact inventory
- The model inventory
- The good practice inventory
- The IA TOOLS handbook"
