Goals and Objectives
The mandate of the Electronic Tools Task Force was approved
at the first Meeting of Parties to the Aarhus Convention
in Lucca, Italy on October 21-23, 2002. Draft
Decision I/6 (MSDoc, 110 Kb) (Promoting the Use of
Electronic and Other Information Tools) highlights the
main goals of the Task Force, as follows:
- Based on the work of the first Task Force, to complete
the list of regional, subregional and national priorities;
- To further act as an advisory body and an exchange
mechanism for documenting and sharing best practices
by facilitating case studies, training workshops and
staff exchange both in traditional and electronic forms;
- To prepare recommendations for the effective use of
electronic information tools based on the expertise
of the participants, priorities and best practice;
- To continue to work as a capacity-building body by
identifying and implementing the necessary measures,
in cooperation with the capacity-building service and
the clearing-house mechanism.
The Task Force will continue to accord attention
interest to "content" and the nature of the
environmental information being made available by public
authorities, encouraging the availability of more meaningful,
current or cross-cutting environmental information."
