State of activities:

Recommendations and conclusions as adopted at the meeting that launched this Thematic Programme Network (TPN 4) in Tunis, Tunisia 8-10 October 2002, are as follows:

» 

TPN4 can be considered a framework that will facilitate information flow and coordination of activities related to ecological monitoring, natural resources mapping, remote sensing and early warning systems

» 

A synthesis and analysis of the existing information should be made available to the members of the network, in order to add value to ongoing activities in the UNCCD context

» 

A web site needs to be set up linking with other networks and offering the possibility to exchange information

» 

Partnerships should be promoted to the benefit of the respective partners

» 

Building capacities at all levels is a major task of the network

» 

Linking with other regional initiatives is essential.
