Dear Colleagues,
I would like to draw your attention to the Rio Online Dialogues which may be accessed at www.riodialogues.org. The Online Dialogues aim to bring together young people, NGOs, academia, the public and private sectors and the scientific community to contribute fresh ideas on sustainable development. Conclusions and recommendations drawn from the Online Dialogues will be conveyed directly to the heads of State and Governments at the Rio+20 Conference on 20-22 June 2012 in Brazil.
The ten dialogue topics include: Oceans; Food and Nutrition Security; Poverty; Solutions to Economic Crises; Energy for All; Water; Economics of Sustainable Development; Cities & Innovation; Unemployment and Migration; and Forests.
This is a unique opportunity for you to participate and directly contribute to the open and democratic discussions that will result in meaningful, practical and innovative recommendations that will be presented to world leaders at the historic Rio+20 Conference in Brazil. I encourage you to do so no later than 3 June after which time recommendations will no longer be accepted.
Sincerely,
Geraldine
