Abstract
eng: This survey of the international recognition of the EDIP Methodology for life cycle assessment includes interviews with 12 internationally recognised experts within life cycle assessment, including researchers from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, The Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, USA and Japan. The EDIP Methodology is internationally recognised as a magnificent LCA methodology, which has a strong position compared to other existing methodologies. EDIP will keep that position in the further development of LCA internationally, if Denmark continues the effort. The establishment of a Danish LCA Knowledge Centre and continued Danish efforts with the EDIP Methodology are strongly supported.

Resumé
dan: Denne interviewundersøgelse af kendskabet til UMIP-metoden til livscyklusvurdering er baseret på interview med 12 internationalt anerkendte
eksperter fra Danmark, Norge, Sverige, Holland, Tyskland, Schweiz, USA og Japan. UMIP-metoden er internationalt anerkendt som en enestående LCA-metode, som har en stærk position sammenlignet med andre eksisterende metoder. UMIP-metoden vil holde denne position i den fortsatte
internationale udvikling af LCA hvis Danmark fortsætter indsatsen. Etableringen af et dansk LCA-videnscenter og en fortsat dansk indsats med UMIP-metoden anbefales stærkt.
