At the Singapore IFEH Council meeting July 2009 a small working group was instructed to prepare a document in readiness for UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen in early December 2009.

The Statement is only supplementary and does not replace the IFEH Policy no 9 on Climate Change adopted 2006 in Dublin.

Also the
IFEH Policy no 8
on the use of Sustainability Indicators adopted 2005 in Durban is closely interlinked and can be used in the dialogue with national Governments.
