THINGS TO LOOK FOR TODAY

PLENARY: The Plenary will not convene until 4:00 pm today to allow time for regional and interest groups to meet. At 4:00 pm a representative from Denmark will present an update on their preparations for the Summit. The Secretariat will then introduce the revised version of the Draft Programme of Action, which will be the basis for negotiations next week. The revised draft will initially only be available in English. Copies in the other working languages of the UN will likely be available by Tuesday. The text is expected to be 30% shorter than the original in document A/CONF.166/ PC/L.13.

US BRIEFING: The United States delegation will hold a briefing for NGOs today at 1:15 pm in Conference Room 4.
