From: "Amy Christensen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 12:27 PM Subject: exhibit on history of international environmental policy The Environmental Science and Public Policy Archives at Harvard University has mounted an exhibit entitled "People and the Planet: Forging International Environmental Policy, 1972-2002". The exhibit traces the movement through the 1972 UN Conference on Man and the Environment through the activities of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), various nongovernmental activities in the 1980s related to international policy and action, and the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development. It has been mounted as the world prepares for the World Summit on Sustainable Development being held in Johannesburg late in the summer of 2002. The supporting documents consist of correspondence, draft and final conference documents, photographs and various monographs published during the period on the relationship between humans and the environment. The materials come principally from the recent acquisition of the "Maurice F. Strong Papers" as well as from the "Peter S. Thacher Environment Collection." For more information please consult the Archives at 617 496.4958. The Environmental Science and Public Policy Archives collects the papers and records of figures and organizations who have been key players in the development of international environmental policy. It holdings include an excess of 500 linear feet of manuscript and archival materials and over 6000 volumes of environmental publications, conference documents, meeting reports and grey literature that are not easily accessible elsewhere.
