Canada and Agenda 21

HTML

A Guide to Sustainability

On an historical note, from the fall of 1992 to the spring of 1996, the Projet de société brought together the leaders in business, government, and civil society to review Canada's commitments to Agenda 21 and to bring forward the choices that Canadians face in making the transition to sustainable development. Out of this process came several benchmark documents, two of which we have online (listed here). For a more historical perspective about sustainability in Canada see our "Canadian Planning for a Sustainable Future" section on IISDnet.
