Meeting of interdepartmental taskforce on issues of climate change and sustainable development

March 13, 2013

During its first meeting on February 21, 2013, the taskforce looked into issues of interdepartmental cooperation on implementing the decisions of the 18th UN Climate Change Conference, held in Doha in November and December 2012, as well as possible measures for stimulating the reduction of man-made greenhouse gas emissions in the Russian Federation.

The interdepartmental taskforce will meet regularly, no less than once per quarter, with the aim of assuring effective cooperation between federal executive bodies, other government agencies, NGOs, scientific and other organisations in implementing state policy on issues of climate change and sustainable development.

The interdepartmental taskforce on climate change and sustainable development was formed in accordance with a December 13, 2012 presidential order.
