Panel
Discussion: Global Public Goods: International Cooperation in
the 21st Century
The LCPS cooperated
with the United Nations
Development Program (UNDP) and provided consulting
services and resource input for a panel discussion on a book
entitled: "Global Public Goods: International
Cooperation in the 21st Century"
. The concept of
"global public goods" is promoted by UNDP as a further
contribution to shaping and developing international cooperation
in the future. The UNDP took the initiative of
introducing the concept and pinpointing policy implications of
"global public goods", in particular from a national perspective, in
a panel discussion. The panel discussion brought
together 60 participants which included government officials,
members of the private sector and civil society, and
representatives of UN agencies. The panel aimed to raise awareness,
and initiate debate on the subject as well as start a
process of promoting initiatives and action in support of
global public goods at the national level.
