After the Summit? Thoughts on the implementation of sustainable development

Yvonne Rydin

Department of Geography and Environment at the London School of Economics (LSE), Y.Rydin{at}lse.ac.uk

This paper highlights the scope for making progress towards sustainable development through changes in current practices and decision-making processes that do not need international agreements. It outlines seven key areas for improving implementation, including: using monitoring and evaluation (and the information these produce) to change attitudes and behaviour; participation that involves the public constructively; better use of "soft" instruments of persuasion and communication; and ensuring that funding flows are structured to achieve the desired changes.
