Working Groups

The National Focal Points can create Working Groups of experts to focus in specific areas and address priority issues identified by member states of the OAS, serving on both a continuing and ad hoc basis.

In 1999 the National Focal Points met in four working groups corresponding to the four areas of work approved in plenary to discuss specific national concerns and regional priorities for action:   

    - Environmental Liability;
    - Economic and Regulatory Instruments for Environmental Management;
    - Clean Production; and    
    - Strengthening judicial institutions and jurisprudence
    - Past Projects
