CSD-16/17 Matrix

The Matrix is an information tool developed by the Secretariat at the request of the CSD-16 Bureau. It aims to provide user-friendly information on practical experiences in implementation in the thematic areas of agriculture, rural development, land, drought, desertification and Africa. It is based on information submitted by Governments, including through national reports; and by 缅北禁地agencies, international and regional organizations and by Major Groups. It takes into account information contained in Secretary-General's reports and Partnerships for Sustainable Development registered with the CSD Secretariat, as well as information emerging from the regional implementation meetings.

The Matrix is not an official outcome document of the CSD. As an information tool, it is a work in progress. The Secretariat will continue to update the Matrix as more information on implementation is made available.
