Representatives of developing world NGO5 were sponsored to the UNESCO/UNEP Intergovernmental Conference on Environmental Education held in Tbilisi, USSR, from 14-26 October 1977. Following the Conference, these same NGO representatives, as well as 45 other representatives of NGOs, attended the NGO Workshop for Environmental Education Cooperation, held in Geneva, Switzerland, 28-30 October 1977.Recommendations coming from the Workshop were carried out by the two Project Coordinators. They divided the Follow-up Phase of the Project into two parts. One Project Coordinator developed a project proposal to encourage the development of NGO environmental education activities region-ally through the publication of a bulletin after the completion of this project. The other developed the network of NGOs active in environmental education through correspondence and the production of a newsletter, 'EESwitchboard', to share news between NGOs on environmental education.
