WORLD SUMMIT FOR SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT:: YEAR-END UPDATE

As preparations for the World Summit for Social Development continue, there is much to report on the eve of the third session of the Preparatory Committee, which will meet from 16-27 January 1995 in New York. The revised draft Declaration and Programme of Action for the Social Summit (A/CONF.166/PC/L.22) has been released and the General Assembly adopted the provisional rules of procedure for the Summit. This special year-end issue of the Earth Negotiations Bulletin will review relevant activities that have taken place since the intersessional consultations of the Preparatory Committee for the Social Summit. This issue of the Earth Negotiations Bulletin is published as part of a series of year-end issues intended to summarize the current state of play in the various sustainable development conferences and negotiations reported on by the Bulletin in 1994.
