Environment
for Europe
The “Environment for Europe” process is a partnership of the member
States within the UNECE region, organizations of the United Nations system
represented in the region, other intergovernmental organizations, regional
environment centres, non-governmental organizations and other major groups. The
United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, which has been closely associated
with the “Environment for Europe” process since the beginning, serves as
secretariat to the process. The next conference will take place in Belgrade in
the autumn of 2007.
The first Ministerial Conference took place near Prague, at Dobris Castle, on
21-23 June 1991. Four more conferences followed: the Lucerne (Switzerland)
Conference, on 28-30 April 1993; the Sofia (Bulgaria) Conference, on 23-25
October 1995; the Aarhus (Denmark) Conference, on 23-25 June 1998; and the Kiev
(Ukraine) Conference, on 21-23 May 2003.

Commission Sustainable Development 14: Energy, Climate Change and industrial development (NY 1-12 May 2006)
The lack of access to modern energy
and the effects of climate change are interlinked and the impacts on women’s
lives, both in developing and industrialized countries, reflect the gender
inequalities and inequities prevailing in the social, economic and political
arenas.
More than two billion people in developing countries, particularly in rural
areas, use traditional fuels, such as wood, charcoal, and dung for cooking, and
lack basic modern energy services. The lack of access to affordable energy
services is a serious barrier to sustainable livelihoods and emergence from
poverty. Seventy percent of the 1.3 billion people in developing countries
living on less than one dollar a day are women, therefore it follows that energy
poverty is a problem that has a disproportionate effect on women.
The North-South dimension of the problem must also be considered, especially in
the light of climate change mitigation and adaptation policies and energy
consumption patterns. As highlighted by Agenda 21, current levels of energy
consumption and production are not sustainable, especially if demand continues
to increase. Over-consumption of energy in industrialised countries is
accompanied by lack of access to energy in developing countries, which affects
their capacity to meet their basic needs and combat poverty. The linkages
between gender equality and energy consumption and production also have
consequences in terms of mitigation responses to climate change.
Addressing the gender aspects of energy and climate change will ensure a more
just political response and help to formulate more appropriate poverty reduction
policies and strategies, since women are disproportionately represented among
the poorest of the poor.
Women’s
Major Group Discussion Paper For CSD-14 (download
pdf 102 kb)
This paper provides background information and lessons learned concerning the
gender aspects of energy and climate change, with the expectation that this
material will be taken into account in the discussions during CSD-14 and in the
recommendations made at CSD-15. Although the gender issues discussed here may be
unfamiliar to some of the CSD participants, these are very important concerns
for women and men throughout the world.
BPW and sister organizations will lobby for the following points of view:
1. There is a need to refocus the thinking and the debate on energy and
climate change to include a human rights perspective. Integrating a rights-based
approach to access to sustainable and affordable energy is an approach that will
recognise and take into account women’s specific needs and women’s human
rights.
2. Women must be recognised as agents of change who have a significant role to
play in creating sustainable models for energy consumption and production, and
in responsible climate change mitigation and adaptation efforts. There is an
urgent need to include gender equality and involvement of women at all
environmental planning and decision-making levels.
3. Empowerment through capacity building and technical training will increase
women’s capacity to effectively participate in energy policy-making and
decision-making bodies.
4. Enabling women’s voices to be heard in decision-making—Women are
currently under-represented in energy policy making positions, and generally
still face constraints in decision-making process at all levels of social
organisation whether it be in national and local government or in their homes
and workplaces
5. Energy priorities identified by women in developing countries include: Clean
fuels and equipment for cooking, heating and productive uses, Motorised
equipment for grinding, pumping, agriculture, and transportation, Electricity
for lights, appliances, communications and computers
6. support women and women’s groups undertaking sustainable energy enterprises
and initiatives; providing training in business and production skills; and
encouraging women and girls to obtain advanced degrees in science and
engineering.
7. Gaps in data and statistics in the area of gender and energy must be filled
as a matter of urgency; The allocation of funds in the energy sector should be
tied to the implementation of gender mainstreaming
8. NGOs, in particular environmental NGOs, must be made aware of gender
perspectives in the energy sector and trained to integrate gender in their work.
The same applies to the other Major Groups represented in the CSD process
9. Climate protection instruments may, affect women and men differently because
of their differing economic status. Financial support of technical measures to
protect the climate likewise tends to be more in favour of men’s interests.
Measures necessary to produce changes in behaviour do not receive a similar
level of recognition and support
10. Address the absence of the gender dimension in the UNFCCC, and the scarcity
of research focusing on the gender aspects of climate change will also help to
build a more consistent and solid approach regarding climate change policies.
A delegation of BPW International will take part in CSD 14, consisting of
Yara Blochstein (Brasil), Lesha Witmer (Netherlands), Gudrun Innertsberger (Germany) and
others.

Energiek Buitenlandsbeleid
Rapport
"Energiek Buitenlandsbeleid (download pdf., 2715 kb)
Energie: een aantal begrippen
Duurzame, en niet-duurzame energie. Energiebronnen die vroeg of laat op kunnen raken omdat ze in beperkte mate aanwezig zijn noemen we niet-duurzame energiebronnen. Voorbeelden zijn aardgas, aardolie en steenkool. Duurzame bronnen zoals wind- en zonne-energie kunnen niet opraken.
Fossiele brandstoffen. Aardgas, aardolie, steenkool en bruinkool zijn gedurende miljoenen jaren ontstaan uit plantaardige en dierlijke resten.
Het natuurlijke broeikaseffect. Rond de aarde ligt een deken van gassen. Deze deken zorgt ervoor dat de zonnewarmte deels wordt vastgehouden. Zonder deze gassen zou de gemiddelde temperatuur op aarde min18 graden Celsius zijn. Nu is de gemiddelde temperatuur plus 12 graden Celsius. Zonder broeikasgassen zouden we hier dus niet kunnen leven.
Het versterkte broeikaseffect. Kooldioxide, of CO2, komt van nature voor in de atmosfeer. CO2 wordt door planten tijdens de groei opgeslagen, en komt weer vrij als de planten dood gaan. Door het verbranden van fossiele brandstoffen komt CO2 vrij dat miljoenen jaren geleden is opgeslagen. Zo komt er dus veel extra CO2 in de lucht, en dit versterkt het natuurlijke broeikaseffect. Hierdoor stijgen de temperaturen op aarde en dit heeft klimaatsveranderingen tot gevolg. Zie voor meer informatie: Klimaatverandering.
Zure regen. Dit is een vorm
van luchtverontreiniging die leidt tot schade aan de natuur. Verzurende stoffen
zoals stikstofoxiden (NOx) en zwaveldioxide (SO2) leveren een bijdrage aan de
zure regen.
During the CSD 12 and 13, Business and Professional Women advocated the following:
supports women to be leaders and agents of change in Integrated Water Resource Management, leading to supplying safe, affordable drinking water and gender sensitive sanitation facilities and prevent conflicts about water by peaceful means - so assisting in achieving the Millennium Goals on water, sanitation and habitat world-wide
· promotes that (access to) water must be identified by all stakeholders as a public good and human right and not a commodity to be traded on the open market
· requests the creation of national frameworks (e.g. Constitutional, legislative, regulatory) to safeguard accessibility, quality, affordability and good governance regarding water and sanitation
· requests that Women’s rights to land, water and other natural resources are incorporated into the provisions of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW)
· regrets - despite the number of capable women - that women are still underrepresented in negotiations and (project)teams and that women do not fully participate in decision-making about water– and sanitation services
· promotes involvement and support of relevant actors as participants (not target groups) including the equal participation of women and consideration of (cultural) diversity and gender
· promotes integrated water, sanitation and waste projects, using local capacities
· promotes less bureaucratic (more transparent) policies, procedures and processes including monitoring and/ or evaluation of the outcomes
· requests - particularly in (post) armed conflicts situations and disaster – that women’s safe access to water, housing and sanitation should be ensured (e.g. by making funds available to women to participate and take leadership in (re)constructing infrastructure such as water supply, sanitation facilities etc.) and they participate in decision-making at local, regional and national levels
· suggests to the Commission for Sustainable Development (CSD) / ECOSOC, working together with the World Bank and micro-financing institutions, to review the financing structures and methods and explicitly commissions the creation of more opportunities for financing projects on local and regional levels, to be implemented by local government or local groups (based on the Beijing Platform for Action Strategic objective A.3 , the (micro-financing) guidelines of the United Nations, the Equator principles, Worldbank EHS guidelines, small business review ICF and the micro credit summit)
· requests that contributions made “in kind” by inhabitants or users are also acknowledged by governments in granting subsidies
· promotes and stimulates exchange and development of skill and knowledge, facilitating vocational and task-oriented training programmes (including in non-traditional professions), particularly for young people and women
· promotes and assists in the strengthening of institutional (local) capacity e.g. by providing problem-solving focussed training and integral process and project support

The UNECE Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters was adopted on 25th June 1998 in the Danish city of Aarhus at the Fourth Ministerial Conference in the 'Environment for Europe' process. The Aarhus Convention further strengthened in Almaty
Key outcomes are:
The Aarhus Convention is a new kind of environmental agreement. It links environmental rights and human rights. It acknowledges that we owe an obligation to future generations. It establishes that sustainable development can be achieved only through the involvement of all stakeholders. It links government accountability and environmental protection. It focuses on interactions between the public and public authorities in a democratic context and it is forging a new process for public participation in the negotiation and implementation of international agreements.
The subject of the Aarhus Convention goes to the heart of the relationship between people and governments. The Convention is not only an environmental agreement, it is also a Convention about government accountability, transparency and responsiveness.
The Aarhus Convention grants the public rights and imposes on Parties and public authorities obligations regarding access to information and public participation and access to justice.
More on the content of the Convention and full text of the Convention.
 |
Adoption of an amendment to the Convention extending the rights of the public to participate in decision-making on genetically modified organisms (GMOs). |
|
The adoption of Guidelines on how Parties should apply the principles of the Aarhus Convention in other international environment-related forums. The Guidelines are expected to lead to greater transparency and accountability in a wide range of international bodies and processes dealing with environmental issues in which the Parties to the Convention have a strong influence. |
|
Promotion of the Aarhus principles globally: the Parties pledged their support for the drawing up of appropriate regional instruments on access to information, public participation in decision-making and access to justice in other regions, as well as extending an invitation to States outside the UNECE region to accede to the Convention. |
The Netherlands is party to this convention.

introduction from UNECE about the Aarhus convention
list of countries participatingNew EU directive (Aarhus convention) on right to environmental information becomes binding
Europeans now not only have the freedom, but also the right to access environmental information, following the entry into force of the new directive on public access to environmental information (Directive 2003/4/EC). The new directive supersedes an earlier 1990 directive, further aligning EU rules with environmental information requirements stipulated under the UNECE Convention on Access to Information, Public Participation in Decision-making and Access to Justice in Environmental Matters (Aarhus Convention).

The Millennium Development Goals commit the international community to an
expanded vision of development, one that vigorously promotes human development
as the key to sustaining social and economic progress in all countries, and
recognizes the importance of creating a global partnership for development. The
goals have been commonly accepted as a framework for measuring development
progress.
During the Millennium Summit held in New York in September 2000, all 189 UN
Member States adopted the Millennium Declaration, which contained a core group
of goals and targets, some of which were later refined through the Roadmap
towards the implementation of the United Nations Millennium Declaration
and the MDGs. These eight goals are essentially centered on national
targets for poverty, education, gender equality, and environmental
sustainability, but also include targets for establishing an international trade
and finance policy framework that favors development. Numerical targets have
been set for each goal, which are to be achieved by 2015.
Millenium
Goals
Emanating from the Millennium Declaration, the eight Millennium Development
Goals bind countries to do more and join forces in the fight against poverty,
illiteracy, hunger, lack of education, gender inequality, child and maternal
mortality, disease and environmental degradation. The eighth goal, reaffirmed in
Monterrey and Johannesburg, calls on rich countries to relieve debt, increase
aid and give poor countries fair access to their markets and their technology.
The Millennium Development Goals are a test of political will to build stronger
partnerships. Developing countries have the responsibility to undertake policy
reforms and strengthen governance to liberate the creative energies of their
people. But they cannot reach the Goals on their own without new aid
commitments, equitable trading rules and debt relief. The Goals offer the world
a means to accelerate the pace of development and to measure results.
