The Environmental Caucus, brought together by the National Audubon

to the environment. About sixteen NGO representatives from Mexico, the

together to formulate the caucus' priorities, draft the caucus statement which
was presented to the government meeting, and educate government delegates
and other NGO representatives about the caucus' concerns.
In particular, the environmental caucus worked to articulate the
connections between environment and the priorities of the ICPD Programme
of Action, such as health, quality of life, and development. "We cannot address
access to food, water safety, and migration without addressing the
National Audubon Society
environment as well," says the statement issued by the Environmental
Caucus. "A healthy environment should be a priority when seeking to address
human health and welfare."
The Preparatory Committee will meet again in mid-May to complete
work on the review document. Among the sections of the draft text that
remain to be discussed are those dealing with international funding of
Campaign
programs, partnerships between governments and civil society, and providing
resources for reproductive health programs aimed at serving adolescents.

The final document will be presented to a special session of the United
Nations General Assembly, scheduled to run from June 30 through July 2.
