High-Level Panel on Global Sustainability launched

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced a new panel on global sustainability. The 21-member High Level Panel brings together leading global policymakers, the private sector and civil society experts. The panel, co-chaired by two presidents, Tarja Halonen of Finland and Jacob Zuma of South Africa, has the task to formulate a new blueprint for sustainable growth and low-carbon prosperity under increasing strain, not least from climate change. The panel is expected to deliver its final report by the end of 2011. Its inputs will feed into inter-governmental processes, including preparations for the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio 2012), and the annual meetings of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).
