INFORMATION TO PUBLIC

It is recognized that effective governance at local, sub-national, national, regional and global levels representing the voices and interests of all is critical and essential to the promotion of sustainable development, whether in the role of citizen, voter, consumer or shareholder. This includes also a broad participation and access to environmental information and effective judicial and administrative procedures. These are essential elements of environmental democracy. It is the right of everyone to receive environmental information, also when that is held by public authorities. This can include information on the state of the environment, but also on policies or measures taken, or on the state of human health and safety where this can be affected by the state of the environment. The Aarhus Convention establishes a number of rights of the public (individuals and their associations) in this regard.

It is therefore important to encourage active participation of the public to be involved in processes at all levels to contribute to better decision-making, planning and implementation of policies and programs and the implementation of a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty reduction. Awareness raising and a (pro) active approach in communication to and with relevant groups are important instruments to stimulate their participation in these processes.
