New 10YFP draft out for review
May 11, 2009
Last week I read the new draft of the 10 Year Framework paper. My immediate impression is that the MP is still not focusing on the WSSD mandate to develop “programs of support” to the initiatives out there working on this issue. It seems to instead propose a number of thematic areas which can be developed into initiatives by the UN and others. However this approach still does not focus on the key need here — to provide SUPPORT to the work that is going on. Instead it appears to be proposing new initiatives that are more likely to compete for what support is there.
Now that we are only one year from the official CSD review, it seems a bit crazy that we remain in this limbo.
Given the stakes, it is essential that we develop a clear set of proposals for the action which we need the UN to take in supporting the global sustainability movement.
