CSD-13 Partnerships Fair (2005)

Preparation

A Partnerships Fair was held during CSD-13, 11 to 22 April 2005, and focused on partnerships activities in the thematic cluster of water, sanitation and human settlements.

In keeping with the policy year focus on “practical measures and options to expedite implementation of commitments”, the Partnerships Fair at CSD-13 highlighted the lessons learned from registered partnerships for sustainable development.

Specifically, the CSD-13 Partnerships Fair Had Two Main Components

  1. "Partnerships in Practice:" Interactive discussions on practical issues related to partnerships, based on the ‘real’ experiences of CSD registered partnerships. These sessions focused on lessons learned from partnerships directly working in the thematic areas of water, sanitation and human settlements.
  2. Information Desks Display: Representatives from CSD registered partnerships had the opportunity to display and distribute information related to their partnership and directly interact with CSD participants.

Note: Partnerships activities were also organised during the CSD Intergovernmental preparatory meeting in New York from 28 February to 4 March 2005 which included “Partnerships in Practice” interactive discussion sessions and information desks for CSD registered partnerships to display and distribute information related to their partnership.
