Habitat II Follow-up
The formal end of the Habitat II Conference marked the beginning of a major new phase on the journey, namely, follow-up in the form of monitoring and implementing the Habitat Agenda - the Partnership Plan of Action. The very first step was to obtain a disk copy of the Habitat Agenda, to make the full text available on the Habitat II Web site, and to send notification of its online availability to interested electronic mailing lists - on the same day that the document was agreed to by Member States.
