The UN Division for Sustainable Development (DSD), a division of the UN Department of Economics and Social Affairs (UNDESA) has produced a study on the review of the implementation of two of the major outcomes of the UN Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD) held in Rio in 1992; the Rio Declaration and Agenda 21. The study is part of a broader project, Sustainable Development in the 21st Century (SD21), whose objective is to provide a long-term vision for sustainable development based on the development since the Earth Summit.

Stakeholder Forum conducted in-depth analysis of implementation of the 27 Rio Principles that make up the Rio Declaration, and the 39 Chapters of Agenda 21.

The results of the study are presented in three reports:
  • Detailed review of progress in implementation of the Rio Principles
  • Detailed review of progress in implementation of Agenda 21
  • Synthesis report on the review of Agenda 21 and the Rio Principles.
The three reports can be found on the UN DSD website along with other reports from the SD21 project here.
