Summary: | This study reviews how the integration
of environmental concerns into agriculture and forestry is
progressing in the countries of Southeastern Europe (SEE)
and of Eastern Europe, Caucasus, and Central Asia (EECCA)
since 2000 and assesses prospects for the future. The
present report is a contribution to the environment for
Europe process. At the Fifth Ministerial Conference in Kiev
in 2003, participants decided to pay greater attention to
the needs of the EECCA and adopted an environmental strategy
for the sub-region. The commitments made under that strategy
are taken as benchmarks against which progress is assessed,
recommendations made, and emerging environmental priorities
reviewed. This report also includes an assessment of SEE
countries and territories. The analysis provided here is
intended primarily to inform discussions during and after
the sixth environment for Europe Ministerial Conference, to
be held in Belgrade in October 2007. The main text of this
report provides a synthesis of major regional issues and
trends, with broad recommendations for future directions and
priorities. The annexes provide a wealth of data along with
detailed country reviews for the 22 countries and
territories studied. |
