This seminar was part of the OECD’s Programme of Dialogue and Co-operation with China. It was organised under the auspices of OECD Working Group on Environmental Information and Outlooks (WGEIO), and in close co-operation with the State Environmental Protection Administration of China (SEPA) and the Chinese Academy for Environmental Planning (CAEP). The seminar was a follow-up to an earlier OECD-China seminar on environmental monitoring, Beijing, 12-14 April 1999. The seminar was attended by 90 officials from OECD member countries, China and international organisations.
The seminar reviewed the latest experience with developing and using environmental indicators in the context of sustainable development in China and OECD countries as well as from the perspective of environmental information and reporting. Special attention was given to the use of indicators as tools for environmental planning, policy integration, public information, and monitoring progress towards sustainable development.
