18.04.2012

The Partnership Forum for Sustainable Development - Stockholm+40 - will be hosted by the Swedish Ministry of the Environment and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, on 23-25 April 2012, to commemorate the first UN Conference on the Human Environment held in Stockholm in 1972. Stockholm+40 aims to join actors from the international community for a dialogue on sustainable development and its challenges, in the areas of technology, production and living. The business sector, civil society, researchers, decision-makers and young people will bring together their different perspectives to try to figure out what we can do to achieve sustainable development. The results and dialogue from Stockholm+40 will provide important input for Rio+20.
