At its Second Preparatory Meeting in March 2011, the Preparatory Committee for the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (UNCSD) requested the Bureau to initiate an open, transparent and inclusive process, led by member States, to prepare in a timely manner a draft text, based upon all preparatory inputs, to serve as the basis for an outcome document for the Conference.

The second Preparatory Committee Meeting invited all member States, relevant United Nations system organizations, and relevant stakeholders to provide inputs and contributions to the Secretariat in writing by 1 November 2011, for inclusion in a compilation text to be presented by the Bureau to member States and other stakeholders for their comments and further guidance at the second Intersessional Meeting on 15-16 December 2011. This compilation document is to serve as basis for the preparation of a zero-draft of the outcome document, to be presented for consideration by Member States and other stakeholders by January 2012.

Inputs received by the Secretariat are contained in this web-based Compilation Document in their unedited versions, preceded by an index of terms to facilitate analysis of material submitted.

Submissions from member States in languages other than English are being translated and the English translation will be made available shortly.

The Compilation Document is available in searchable pdf files that can be downloaded and stored onto a memory device by clicking on the links below. The pdf version is divided into five parts to make the file sizes manageable. For all those submissions in original language for which the official English translation was available as of Monday, 12 December, the translations are integrated into the Compilation Text. When the other translations are ready, they will be integrated.
