'Go sustainable, be responsible! European civil society on the road to Rio+20'
7 Feb 2012 - 8 Feb 2012
The United Nations is convening a Summit level Conference on sustainable development in Rio in the summer of 2012, 20 years after the first 1992 Earth Summit and ten years after the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg in 2002.
The EESC conference 'Go sustainable, be responsible! European civil society on the road to Rio+20' on 7-8 February 2012 in Brussels is intended to voice European civil society's positions on Rio+20 and help make Rio+20 a success.
The EESC in its capacity as a channel for organized civil society in Europe has also been playing an active part in the establishment of the EU contributions to Rio+20. It held hearings in 2010 and 2011 to help identify the aspirations of civil society for the Summit, and produced two opinions on the Summit and the European approach to it in 2010 and 2011.

Watch the promotional clip with Staffan Nilsson and Hans-Joachim Wilms about the EESC conference of 7-8 February 'Go sustainable, be responsible! European civil society on the road to Rio+20' (EN+DE).
Go sustainable. Be responsible!
"We may need short term decisions to overcome the crisis, but we want our leaders to keep the long-term perspectives of sustainability!
It is cheaper to prevent and create rather than repair, which often is much more complicated!"
say Staffan Nilsson and Hans-Joachim Wilms who invite you to to take the road with us to the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development called "Rio+20" -
