tailieunhanh - The Living Environment

Due to the scope of our work, and to the need to have a wide perspective. I was very much aware of the need to put together a highly qualified and influential political and scientific team, to constitute a truly independent Commission. This was an essential part of a successful process. Together, we should span the globe, and pull together to formulate an interdisciplinary, integrated approach to global concerns and our common future. We needed broad participation and a clear majority of members from developing countries, to reflect world realities. We needed people with wide experience, and from all political fields, not only from environment or development. | The Living Environment Core Curriculum THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK THE STATE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT http THE UNIVERSITY OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK Regents of The University Carl T.
