Integrating economic, 
environmental and social 
issues, the following 
factors are taken into 
account:
 
Œ sectoral and sectoral 
strategic plans and 
pro grammes,  indicating 
how environmental 
issues are integrated 
into these plans and 
programmes; 
 
Œ whether appropriate 
action plans with 
specific time and 
resource planning have 
been developed;
 
Œ what environmental 
policy measures and 
methods are used in 
the particular sector;
 
Œ what general‑purpose 
policy measures 
function particularly 
widely and effectively;
 
Œ what the major projects

ENVIRONMENT, POLLUTION, DEVELOPMENT:  THE CASE OF UZBEKISTAN
Granting environ mental issues a dominant or equal status 
compared to economic and social issues, the system is supplemented 
by sectoral indicators, creating mutual integration (at the policy 
level – the integration of environ mental issues in sectoral policies; 
at the indicator level – eco-efficiency and energy intensity estimates, 
analysis of environ mental profiles).
Under  the  EU  Sustainable  Development  Strategy,  EUROSTAT 
uses approximately 100 indicators, while the headline indicators 
characterise the key directions of sustainable Development (socio-
economic Development, sustainable consumption and production, 
social inclusion, demographic changes, public health, climate 
change and energy, sustainable transport, natural resources, global
