What Happens on Monday? : Invitation to Join the Dialogue<\/strong><\/p>\n

We have learned from the past twenty years that with all best intentions one thousand flowers bloom \u2013 however, they do not all always survive.  When plans are made and objectives set \u2013 by all stakeholders, government and non-governmental alike \u2013 the means to implement them are less than clearly defined, and often individual groups of stakeholders are left to their own devices to work as best they can to translate the international agreements into meaningful and tangible action on the ground. To carry forth the momentum from Rio+20, on the final day of Rio +20, Friday 22 June<\/strong>, Stakeholder Forum invites you to join a session focussing on \u2018What happens on Monday?\u2019 This will bring together a diversity of players to engage in multi-stakeholder networking, information sharing, and interactive dialogue on a successful post-Rio agenda and work plan.  The objective of the session will not be to define and outline timetables or set plans in motion; instead, it will be designed to build on the momentum created in Rio to channel the energy of stakeholders into determining how to collaborate to make the most effective plans for the first fifteen month post-Rio \u2013 from June 2012 to September 2015.<\/p>\n

Invitation to join the Sustainable Development Dialogues<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Government of Brazil and the UN are organizing the Rio+20 Sustainable Development Dialogues<\/strong><\/a>, consisting of two elements. The first will involve facilitators from international academic and research institutions leading online discussions on ten themes at the heart of sustainable development. The second will involve presenting the top recommendations to the Sustainable Development Dialogues session and to the Heads of State and Government gathering at the Rio+20 Conference in Rio de Janeiro, June 16-19. UNDP is interested in learning how development can become an inclusive process – this is an experiment in how this can happen. It is not to distract from the outcome document, but UNDP recommends on seeing three main outcomes from Rio+20: 1.’The Future We Want’ outcome document, 2. Recommendations from the Rio SD Dialogues, and 3. Voluntary commitments from different stakeholders.<\/p>\n
