WESR Strategy and Conceptual Approach

This strategy outlines the conceptual approach for strengthening the World Environment Situation Room as a user-centred, demand-driven platform that supports environmental monitoring and decision-making. It describes the development of a federated data system that provides access to real-time environmental data, information, and analytics to keep the global environment under review. The document explains how the platform will strengthen countries’ capacity to monitor progress towards environmental targets under the Sustainable Development Goals and multilateral environmental agreements, while supporting evidence-based policy and environmental governance over the coming decades.
