We have great pleasure in welcoming (Dr) Daniel Hale, Progressio’s Head of Campaigns, who led

their delegation at Rio+20 (United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development). Progressio is the

working name of the Catholic Institute for International Relations (CIIR).

‘I’d be super keen to come and speak with you all in November. I can speak about food and farming in

the context of Rio20? I have an article in (today’s) Conference magazine, Outreach, if you fancy finding

out what’s going on?’ http://www.stakeholderforum.org/fileadmin/files/OUTREACHDIALOGUEDAY3.pdf

But, can we make Rio+20 matter? World leaders in Rio responded to the global crisis by sticking their

heads firmly in the sand. However, there are things that the UK Government can do now to turn this

disappointing deal into ambitious commitments at home
