Since 1994......

For more than 10 years, the Intergroup on Sustainable Development (ISD) provides a forum for European Parliamentarians to learn about, debate and form policies geared towards sustainable development in a cross-sectoral and cross-party manner, making use of outside expertise and participation of stakeholders .

The ISD was relaunched with the newly elected Parliament in January 2005. It is divided into eight sub-groups, each dealing with a specific issue and functioning under the leadership of its own chairman:

• Forestry

• Fisheries

• Agriculture

• Tourism

• Trade and Environment

•  Energy and Transports

• Cooperation &Development

•  Maritime Affairs

Aims

1.      Promote the concept of sustainable use of natural resources, including species and ecosystems.
 

2.      Raise awareness of the principles and problem-solving methods for sustainable production, use and consumption
 

3.      Stimulate debates to further the understanding and implementation of sustainable use projects or programmes
 

4.      Closely collaborate with the World Conservation Union (IUCN) in implementing Countdown 2010 (Follow this link for more details)
