We are immensely proud of the outstanding programme that you, the members of the Eye on Earth global collaborative, have brought together.     The sessions involve eighty four leading experts in environment and natural resources aspects of information for sustainable development.   The programme offers a rich suite of topic areas from fundamental enablers such as Environmental Education, Citizen Science and Cataloguing Indigenous Knowledge, through technology innovations such as the UN Environment’s World Situation Room, WRI’s Resource Watch and the Open Data Cube to specific environmental policy areas such as Biodiversity and Air Quality.
