Hilltops-2-Oceans
Partnership Conference in Cairns, Australia,
11 - 14 May 2004.
Cosponsored by the
Australian Government’s Department of the Environment and
Heritage and the United Nations Environment Programme, the
conference is an integral part of the H2O Partnership Initiative
launched during the World Summit on Sustainable Development. The
aim of the H2O Partnership Conference is to promote realistic
actions and partnerships that address river, coastal and marine
pollution. Emphasizing the linkages between freshwater and marine
environments, the conference will provide an open forum for
stakeholders to address freshwater and saltwater issues in an
integrated fashion. The H2O Partnership Conference will follow
shortly after the Global Ministerial
Environment Forum (29 – 31 March 2004) and the 12th Session of
the Commission on Sustainable Development (19 – 30 April 2004),
where discussion will focus on WSSD targets relating to water,
sanitation and human settlements. It will provide a timely
opportunity to further focus international attention/dialogue on
the concrete actions needed to realize the WSSD targets related to
freshwater, coasts and oceans, and specifically the Global
Programme of Action for the Protection of the Marine Environment
from Land-based Activities.
