The first day of the conference aimed to provide possibilities
for sharing information and views among speakers, panellists
and the audience in the framework of the presentation on sustainable
development and the panel discussions. On the second day practical
results of national assessments were presented in order to
demonstrate the national manifestation of the 2010 target
in South East European countries, as well as to show an example
of NGO involvement in the monitoring of implementation. Later
the participants could express their own experiences, proposals
in Working Groups and worked on a joint position paper that
target NGOs, governments and international organisations.
On
the second after the Working Group discussions Mr. Michael
Meyer (Ecological Tourism in Europe) outlined the modalities
of the edition and adoption of the position paper and the
Working Group chairs introduced the results of the Working Groups to the plenary. Mr. Meyer presented the draft recommendations
that had been edited beforehand by the drafting group sentence
by sentence. Each concern and addition was discussed by the
plenary and after reaching a common agreement, the text was
included in the document. The preamble of the draft position
paper formulated before the conference was also discussed
and adopted. The position paper was endorsed by the conference
participants on 3 November 2004. The conference participants
gave the mandate to CEEweb to work on the layout.
