Name: Commission on Sustainable Development 17 Consultation
Website: http://www.un.org/esa/sustdev/csd/policy.htm
Categories: Environment

Description:
The United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD) was established by the UN General Assembly in December 1992. As a functional commission of the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), it has 53 member States.

The Review Session took place in 2008, and the CSD-17 Policy Session will be held on May 4-15, 2009. This Session will continue to focus on the following thematic issues: agriculture, rural development, land, drought, desertification, and Africa.

Sustainable development is focused on providing for the present, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. With the focus on the future, it is important that youth take part in the decision-making process. Moreover, many of the issues that are addressed directly affect youth, such as improved standards of living, poverty, and access to employment. Working towards environmental sustainability today will no doubt ensure a brighter future for young people.
