The two-day meeting, organised by UNEP in partnership with UN-DESA, Stakeholder Forum and The Green Economy Coalition provided an opportunity for Major Groups and Stakeholders from across the globe to come together to discuss the outcomes of Rio+20, agree on action items to accelerate these outcomes, and address areas where no progress or agreement was made.
