Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The chair just released a summary of the negotiations so far. The single negotiating text is compiled by the chair after listening to the views of the delegates and major groups from the past week. The delegates and major groups then come together to review their concerns and suggested changes for a final version. Howard Raiffa writes about the theory behind this negotiation structure in the Art and Science of Negotiation.

In particular, a shout out to youth are made:

Para 240. "An energetic youth force is emerging that intends to hold Governments responsible for their commitments. Youth are increasingly integrated into Government delegations in some regions, and their presence as current and future producers and leaders has inspired progress in the creation of new outreach education programs in sustainable agriculture and rural development. Integrating sustainability themes into all levels of education is an important measure that would ensure that future generations are conscious of sustainable development."
