A Statement of the Club of Rome to the World Summit on Sustainable Development

The World Summit on Sustainable Development 2002 in Johannesburg was a key opportunity for political leaders, civil society and the business community to agree on a new framework of solidarity and development for all people in the world that will respect the limits of natural resources. The new challenges concern social equity, cultural diversity, economic stability, ecological protection and the optimum use of the limited resources of the planet. This WSSD had to grasp the opportunity for a step change in implementation of a global culture of cooperation; to create the condition for a continuous and world-wide sustainable dialogue within and among societies.
