Outcomes of meetings of the Governing Bodies of UN System Organizations transmitted to the Rio+20 Conference
PrepCom I invited the governing bodies of relevant UN System Organizations to transmit outcomes, as appropriate, emanating from their meetings relevant to the objective and themes of the Conference.

Thus far the UN entities listed below have submitted relevant material.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), and the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) have also responded to the invitation and provided the calendar of meetings of their Governing Bodies.

For future submissions the Secretariat invites the UN System Organizations to highlight those decisions of the Governing Bodies that are relevant to the objective and themes of the UNCSD.
