Résumé
This paper looks at the ways the international community might attempt to meet the International Development Target for the environment, as part of the wider goal of sustainable development. The International Development Target states that “there should be a current national strategy for sustainable development in the process of implementation in every country by 2005, so as to ensure that
current trends in the losses of environmental resources are effectively reversed at both global and national levels by 2015”. The paper argues that development will not be sustainable without effective management of the environment, and that equal attention needs to be given to the three social, economic and environmental pillars of sustainable development. It emphasises the need to take a longer term perspective, particularly relevant when dealing
with environmental problems and issues.
