Abstract: | This is a study of the effectiveness of key UN institutions focussing on environment and sustainable development: the global
conferences on development and the environment, the CSD and UNEP, primarily its co-ordinating functions. According to the
indicators used to measure effectiveness here, it is concluded that the overall effectiveness of these institutions is quite
low. This particularly applies to the CSD. UNEP has been quite effective in creating new institutions but has been less effective
in co-ordinating them. As to the global conferences, their significance has been reduced over time.
