[Gender] IUCN- The Future of Sustainability: Have Your Say!

[Paula Zuñiga]

Dear Gender List,

IUCN-The World Conservation Union is hosting a discussion Forum entitled
“The Future of Sustainability” and we have received a special invitation for
our Gender and Environment Network. Please do participate and bring into
consideration gender issues in the discussion.

Following is the announcement and URL to do the subscription.

What are the most inspiring and innovative approaches to sustainability in
the twenty-first century? 

How can the conservation and environment community play more effective roles
in addressing issues of social justice, security and human wellbeing?

How do we develop profitable markets and business models that still conserve
biodiversity and enhance ecosystem services?

How can we best communicate the role of nature to the next generation of
urban youth?

These and other questions will be discussed in the first-ever e-Discussion
Forum hosted by the World Conservation Union (IUCN) on the Future of
Sustainability between August 21st and September 15th 2006. IUCN invites you
to have your say and participate in conversations joined by guest writers
and practitioners from around the world over a four week period.

Your inputs will help shape the next generation of thinking about the future
of sustainability and provide timely inputs to the preparations for the 4th
IUCN World Conservation Congress to held in Barcelona, Spain in 2008. A
summary of the e-Discussion Forum will made available on the IUCN website
later this year.
