Partnership for Principle 10 - PP10
PP10 General Information
The first World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in 2002 that took place in Johannesburg, South Africa, proved to be the launching place for a new coalition aimed at implementing Principle 10 of the Rio Pact. This new alliance, Partnership for Principle 10 (PP10), works with the collaboration and support of various governments, civil society organizations, and multilateral bank development systems. Together, these diverse and numerous entities work to achieve improved governmental compliance with international environmental norms.
Each member of the PP10 has its own action initiatives to fulfill, projects that although may incorporate differing tactics and methods, serve to further the coalition's main principles. Contributing organizations implement commitments aimed at promoting the partnership's agenda at the national level. These efforts begin at a national level, but in collaboration with the work of others they serve to further the PP10´s international purpose. Outcomes of these commitments must be measurable, have appropriate deadlines, and must go beyond current needs in an effort to provide sustainable progress. The guiding principles behind the work of the PP10 include accountability, communication transparency, equality and inclusiveness with partners, the search for tangible results, efficiency, and respect.
While The Access Initiative works primarily with civic organizations, the PP10 differentiates itself because it works in conjunction with civic institutes and the governments of countries including Chile, Hungary, Italy, Mexico, Sweden, Uganda, and Britain.
