On a meeting during the annual conference in Dubrovnik, the WG so far identified Rio+20 and the financial crisis as future topics. The WG plans to discuss in future meetings the impact that the financial world has on the environment. Concerning the Rio+20 topic, the WG plans to cooperate with the WG Sustainable Development and is therefore invited to the WG SD meeting in Gent on 6 July.
