EVOLUTION OF THE CONCEPT ‘SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT’ AND ITS CURRENT STATE
Анотація
In this article the evolution of the concept ‘sustainable development’ was investigated. The UN Millennium Development Goals, the Nairobi Declaration, the United Nations Environmental Program, the Johannesburg Declaration and other documents were analyzed. The current state of this concept was clarified. Rio Declaration is considered to be an important document for providing sustainable development. This document consists of 27 values that will serve as a roadmap for future global sustainable development policies. The 1997 Kyoto Protocol shares the Convention’s objective, principles and institutions, but significantly strengthens the Convention by committing legally-binding targets to limit or reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. It is stated in the paper that nowadays ‘sustainable development’ has become a common used catchphrase in everyday language.
