The ImpEct Scenario |
ImpECt (Implementation of Environmental Conventions) includes leading actors in the environmental sector, and is represented by the European Space Agency. This community will use DILIGENT to support conference organisation and the preparation of projects and periodical reports. International and regional conventions related to marine pollution and the UNESCO World Heritage Programme represent the framework for formulating international environmental agreements. These conventions are continuously evolving and thematic areas are specialising. Yet, information sources are dispersed among environmental agencies and a DILIGENT-based digital libraries could be the most appropriate tool for enabling this community to more effectively coordinate actions. |
