Philippines Resources: Philippine Agenda 21: A National Agenda for Sustainable Development Executive Summary: Capacity-building Programme in support of the Philippine Council for Sustainable Development (PHI/93/681) Ensuring Environmental Sustainability UNDP works on enhancing the environment's carrying capacity to support the country's sustained economic growth, alleviating poverty in the process. This is through the: (1) evolution and refinement of the legislative, institutional, and regulatory framework; (2) use of market-based mechanisms and adoption of environmentally sustainable technologies to encourage private sector participation in environmental protection as well as greater community alliance in the formulation and implementation of local level initiatives; and (3) establishment of a more effective system of environmental governance and delivery of environmental services, including monitoring and enforcement. The portfolio supports two main outcomes: Strengthened, rationalized and effectively implemented environment and natural resources policies, frameworks and plans. At the national level, we support the "road mapping" activities (i.e. formulation, sequencing, and implementation) of policy reforms in the following areas: pollution prevention, safer/cleaner production, solid waste management, protected area management, water resource management, ecosystems management, and sustainable energy development. Research and advocacy efforts for addressing the unequal treatment of men and women in terms of property rights are also included.

She compares this with isolated, unvalued and poorly supported modern day mothers, and asks what long term evolutionary consequences this may have as humans continue to slowly genetically evolve.

The Objective 2 Programme seeks to encourage the consideration and integration of environmental sustainability into applications for funding. The programme therefore has Environmental Sustainability as one of the horizontal themes that crosscuts and underpins all activity supported.
