Abstract
At its fifteenth session, the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) reaffirmed the need for enhanced cooperation between the UNFCCC, the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), with the aim of ensuring the environmental integrity of the conventions and promoting synergies under the common objective of sustainable development, in order to avoid duplication of effort and use available resources more efficiently. The SBSTA noted that enhancing cooperation between the UNFCCC, the CBD, the UNCCD and other global environmental conventions involves action at the national level, the level of convention bodies and potentially at other levels. The SBSTA agreed to consider this matter further at its sixteenth session. It invited Parties to submit further views including suggestions for specific action towards achieving such cooperation with other relevant intergovernmental bodies, in particular the UNFCCC, the CBD and the UNCCD, by 15 March 2002, to be compiled into a miscellaneous document (FCCC/SBSTA/2001/8, para. 41). The secretariat has received six such submissions, including one from Samoa on behalf of the Alliance of Small Island States and one from Spain on behalf of the European Community and its member States. In accordance with the procedure for miscellaneous documents, these submissions are reproduced in the language in which they were received and without formal editing
