UNITAR - Conference programme

In May 2008 a unique conference on Environmental Governance and Democracy was held at Yale University with UNITAR aimed to discuss globally “Institutions, public participation and environmentally sustainability: Bridging research and capacity development”.

The conference was the first stage to host discussions with participation of different stakeholders form dozens of countries, to defining the linkages between democracy and environment.

During the conference 2 days diverse themes of participatory governance on environmental fields were raised and relevant other topics. Among the participants were Ms Carmit Lubanov, and the Yale-Unitar conference was among the motivation that led to establish few months later (2009) the Association of Environmental Justice in Israel (AEJI) as independent research and resources center on environmental justice and assisted with framing our focuses on access to justice, linking research and capacity development.

Please find the review of the conference by Achim Halpaap at the time of the conference Associate Director and Head, Environment Unit, United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR)
