Proceedings

The Members’ Business Assembly allowed members to contribute to the governance issues of the Union. They heard Commission reports, approved IUCN’s programme of work for the next four years and voted on Resolutions and Recommendations. The Proceedings provide members with a session-by-session account of the business activities on the agenda.

The commitment of the international community to ensure an equitable supply of food and nutrition to everyone on Earth has been reiterated many times. However, there are very few practical examples on how such equity and benefit sharing principles are to be put into practice. The proceedings of this workshop held in February 1998 relate experiences and lessons from a South-South perspective and critically address the translation of recommendations from this workshop into actions.
