environmental programme for Europe

Term
The first all-European conference of environment ministers, attended by ministers from all the European countries (including the then Soviet Union) and the European Commission's Environment Commissioner, issued a call for a new environmental programme for Europe: a framework for the better coordination of national and international environmental efforts, setting priorities for restoring existing environmental damage and the prevention of future problems. That was under the auspicies of the United Nations Commission for Europe (UNECE).
