The Laboratory, formerly the IAEA [International Atomic Energy Agency] Marine Environment Laboratory, was established in 1961 in Monaco as part of the IAEA Department of Research and Isotopes and is the only marine laboratory within the United Nations system. It responds to regular requests for technical assistance from other United Nations agencies and programmes, such as the United Nations Environment Programme, the Food and Agriculture Organization, the World Health Organization and the International Maritime Organization. Nevertheless, the promotion of nuclear and isotopic techniques and the improved understanding of marine radioactivity continue to be central to the Laboratory's work. 1, record 1, English, - Marine%20Environmental%20Studies%20Laboratory

Introduction to the Organotin Environmental Programme(ORTEP) Association. In 1972, the International Tin Research Institute, in cooperation with global major producers of organotin compounds, set up at the Organic Chemistry Institute of the University of Utrecht in The Netherlands, an environmental research program to establish analytical methods for detecting trace amounts of organotin compounds. This work was published and enabled the first studies of mechanisms of degradation under laboratory and environmental conditions. At the conclusion of this research in 1978, companies from America, Europe, and Japan whose operations involved production of organotins founded the ORTEP Association. This organization established a database of technical and environmental information relating to organotin compounds, currently maintained in England. 1, record 3, English, - Organotin%20Environmental%20Programme%20Association

A transnational programme to synthesize the best of research and development into the nature of human learning, and to examine its implications for education, work and the development of communities worldwide. The 21st Century Initiative was sparked... at the November, 1994 Wingspread Conference, in which participants decided that the goals of Education 2000 could best be met by a transnational organization collecting, synthesizing and disseminating the best research and practice on learning and education from around the world. The Initiative was registered in June, 1996, as a 501(c)(3) organization in the United States. John Abbott, a driving force behind Education 2000, became the organization's president. 1, record 7, English, - 21st%20Century%20Learning%20Initiative
