Focusing on links between primary health care and environmental programmes

Context:
In efforts to increase understanding in all sections of society of the interactions between demographic trends and factors and sustainable development, particular attention should be given to population literacy programmes, notably for women.

This strategy features in the framework of Agenda 21 as formulated at UNCED (Rio de Janeiro, 1992), now coordinated by the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development and implemented through national and local authorities.
