Why is the title “Environment for Development” and not “Environment for Sustainable Development”?
The place for the fourth Global Environment Outlook report in the context of the human development was highly debated during the consultative process for GEO-4. Since the World Commission on Sustainable Development (the Brundtland Commission, 1987) popularized the sustainable development paradigm, the human development process has been enriched with new internationally agreed development goals and targets addressed, among others, in the Millennium Declaration, the Johannesburg Declaration and its Plan of Implementation and relevant environmental global and regional instruments. Those, in many cases, include sustainable development goals but provide a wider understanding of the issue. The name was also chosen because “Environment for Development” is UNEP’s current slogan.
