Ten years later, in Johannesburg in 2002, the second global summit promoted LA21 as the principal instrument to use in achieving the well-being of the world’s population. Aimed at local administration, LA21 promotes, through public participation, a real balance between economic growth, social equity, and environmental protection. The concept of sustainable development calls for a constant re-evaluation of the relationship between man and nature, and solidarity between generations, as the only viable option for long-term development. The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Office in Romania actively promotes sustainable development through its support to the project “Building Local Capacity to Implement the Local Agenda 21 in Romania.” The project was implemented in nine pilot cities during 2000–2002, in an additional thirteen cities, during 2003–2004 and in additional three cities and one county, during 2004-2005. The project covers a new set of cities every year, under the coordination of the National Centre for Sustainable Development, UNDP’s implementing agency for LA21.
