Title: Action B4: Horizon Scanning Toolkit

Summary: One of the objectives of the LIFE SMART Waste project is to identify how environmental regulators can use horizon scanning processes to build an early warning system for emerging developments in the waste sector to protect the industry from future criminal enterprise. The Horizon Scanning Toolkit provides a suite of tools to achieve that objective. It is a practical guide that regulatory bodies and their partners can use to: build intelligence about waste crime by gathering, organising and sharing weak signals of change, create insight into changing criminal behaviours and patterns of crime through assessing, ranking and deepening their understanding of the implications of those weak signals, work together to research, plan and deliver action to protect consumers and the industry now and in the future. The toolkit provides a structured approach to horizon scanning that builds a clear, consistent and shared perspective of emerging developments in the waste sector and their potential for criminal enterprise. Through using the toolkit, regulatory bodies will learn to spot newly emerging trends quickly and to assess what the emerging opportunities for future waste crime are likely to be. They will then be able to act together to minimise the impact of those crimes on the environment, society and business.
