Population and Sustainability Network

The Population and Sustainability Network "has been established to clarify and communicate the importance for sustainability of both population and consumption factors. It aims to bring together development, environment and reproductive health NGOs, government departments, academics and others, to increase leverage on population issues."

"The Population & Sustainability Network initiative developed out of the UNED-UK Committee's preparations for the World Summit on Sustainable Development 2002, in Johannesburg."
