Workshop Proceedings

This workshop on environmental law was the first of its kind in the Pacific region It was a natural follow-on from the work that has been carried out by the Regional Environment Technical Assistance Project and the National Environmental Management Strategy Project, both of which are producing National Environmental Management Strategies and Legal Reviews of a dozen countries in the Pacific. The workshop also followed hard
on the heels of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (the UNCED Conference), to which international, regional and national environmental law proved to be a central and essential element. Because it followed so closely after the
UNCED Conference, the workshop enabled a discussion of the many global issues which were fresh in the minds of many of the participants and presenters, which were brought down to a regional and more local level. This was particularly the case in relation to the question of appropriate mechanisms for the achievement of sustainable development.
