| Description: | The Rio Declaration reaffirms the Declaration of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment, adopted at Stockholm on 16 June 1972, and seeks to build upon it, with the goal of 1) establishing a new and equitable global partnership through the creation of new levels of cooperation among States, key sectors of
societies and people and 2) working towards international agreements which respect the interests of all and protect the integrity of the global environmental and developmental
system. |
