JOINT LETTER BERLIN PROCESS ENVIRONMENT.pdf
During the United Nations Kosovo Trust building Forum, held on 21st-23rd November in Thessaloniki, the Environmental Focus Group launched a joint letter to emphasize the importance of including the promotion of environmental justice and the protection of the environment within Common Regional Market decision-making in the Western Balkans. In this letter, addressed to governments, regional bodies, and relevant institutions, signatories highlighted six areas requiring action: Integration of environmental justice into policy and practice; promotion of an inclusive approach to decision-making; creation of efficient monitoring mechanisms; prioritizing the protection of natural resources; investing in clean technologies and infrastructure; and last, but not least, addressing the disparity in environmental injustice.
The letter has so far been signed by more than 30 organizations, individuals, and institutions from all communities, and will remain open to signatures until the next year’s Berlin Process meeting of civil society organizations, where it will be presented as a joint initiative.
