Small Island Developing States Network(SIDSnet) is a direct follow-up to the 1994 Barbados Programme of Action(BPoA). SIDSnet connects 43 Small Island Developing States(SIDS) in the Pacific, Caribbean, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Mediterranean and African island nations. SIDSnet's main goal has been to utilise information and communication technologies(ICTs) to link SIDS in supporting the implementation of the sustainable development objectives of the BPoA. The project was launched in 1998 through UNDP's Sustainable Development Networking Programme(SDNP) and the Alliance of Small Island States(AOSIS). The Water Resources Management and Small Island Developing States Branch of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs(DESA) currently administer the project. 1, record 3, English, - Small%20Island%20Developing%20States%20Network

The Earth Sciences Sector(ESS) of Natural Resources Canada is committed to increasing its involvement in strengthening the capacity of developing countries. For decades, Canada has worked in partnership with developing countries in applying geomatics and geoscience technologies to address a wide variety of important economic, environmental and social issues. This effort has led to immproved capabilities of these countries to achieve sustainable development and better living conditions, while fostering long-term relationships between Canada and the developing world. To allow Canada and ESS to build on many successful technology transfer projects and to seek out new partnerships, ESS is launching a new initiative called The Earth Sciences International Capacity Development Centre. The Centre will facilitate dialogue and help identify benefits and opportunities, while providing a mechanism for effective cooperation amongst all stakeholders. 1, record 5, English, - International%20Capacity%20Development%20Centre

Le Secteur des sciences de la terre (SST) de Ressources naturelles Canada (RNCan) veut augmenter sa participation dans le renforcement des capacités des pays en voie de développement. Pendant plusieurs décennies, le Canada a travaillé de concert avec les pays en voie de développement afin de trouver des solutions à divers problèmes socio-économiques et environnementaux par l'application de technologies modernes dans les domaines de la géomatique et des géosciences. Ces efforts ont permis d'augmenter la capacité de ces pays de développer leurs ressources naturelles de façon durable, contribuant ainsi au bien-être de leurs populations, tout en établissant des relations à long-terme entre le Canada et le monde en développement. Pour favoriser davantage le transfert de la technologie entre le Canada et les pays en voie de développement, le SST lance une nouvelle intiative appelée le Centre international de renforcement des capacités en sciences de la terre. Le Centre aidera à identifier les besoins et les opportunités, et fournira un mécanisme de coopération efficace entre tous les intéressés. 1, record 5, French, - Centre%20international%20de%20renforcement%20des%20capacit%C3%A9s

The Federal Office of Regional Development(Quebec)(FORD-Q), the Biotechnology Research Institute(BRI) of the National Research Council(NRC), and the City of Montreal are today announcing a major investment, the first step toward the creation in Montreal of a research, development and demonstration centre, the first of its kind in Canada for the environmental technologies sector involved with industrial site remediation. This sector represents a market that is growing rapidly worldwide. The Montreal Centre of Excellence for Environmental Site Remediation fits perfectly into the concept of "technological platforms, "the approach favoured by Environment Canada to stimulate Metropolitan Montreal' s economy. Technological platforms make it possible to test environmental technologies and promote them to potential clients. This concept also contributes to furthering the economic growth of the environmental industry in the context of sustainable development. The Centre's mission will be to contribute to the development of effective and economical expertise in the area of restoring contaminated urban sites, which are a serious obstacle to economic development for cities in general and for Metropolitan Montreal in particular. It will also encourage the transfer of proven technologies to the private sector and the development of collaborative research projects and strategic alliances. 1, record 6, English, - Montreal%20Centre%20of%20Excellence%20for%20Environmental%20Site%20Remediation

Le Bureau fédéral de développement régional (Québec) (BFDR(Q)), l'institut de recherche en biotechnologie (IRB) du Conseil national de recherches du Canada (CNRC) et la Ville de Montréal annoncent aujourd'hui un investissement majeur, le premier pas vers la création à Montréal d'un centre de recherche-développement-démonstration, unique au Canada, dans le domaine des technologies environnementales reliées à la réhabilitation de sites urbains contaminés. Ce domaine représente un marché en croissance rapide à l'échelle mondiale. Le Centre d'excellence en réhabilitation de sites de Montréal cadre parfaitement avec le concept de «plateformes technologiques», une approche privilégiée par Environnement Canada pour la relance économique du Grand Montréal. Les plateformes technologiques permettent d'éprouver les technologies environnementales et d'en favoriser la promotion auprès de clients potentiels. Ce concept contribue aussi à stimuler l'essor économique de l'industrie de l'environnement dans un contexte de développement durable. Le Centre aura pour mission de contribuer au développement d'une expertise efficace et économique en matière de réhabilitation de sites urbains contaminés, lesquels constituent une sérieuse entrave au développement économique des villes en général et du Grand Montréal en particulier. Il vise également à favoriser le transfert de technologies éprouvées vers le secteur privé ainsi que l'éclosion de collaborations de recherche et d'alliances stratégiques. 1, record 6, French, - Centre%20d%27excellence%20en%20r%C3%A9habilitation%20de%20sites%20de%20Montr%C3%A9al

In the Budget 2000, the Government of Canada is providing $100 million to establish the Sustainable Development Technology Fund, which will be administered by a third-party foundation. The fund will stimulate the development and demonstration of environmental technologies, particularly those aimed at reducing greenhouse gases(GHG) emissions, such as fuel cells and new construction technologies, as well as improving air quality, such as clean coal technologies. Funding would be available to the private sector, research centres and other institutes. The Sustainable Development Technology Fund will encourage innovation by helping companies develop new technologies and bring them to market. The Fund will complement other federal programs, build on efforts to engage external partners and promote the efficient use of resources and technologies. 1, record 12, English, - Sustainable%20Development%20Technology%20Fund

Dans le Budget 2000, le gouvernement du Canada affecte 100 millions de dollars à l'établissement du Fonds d'appui technologique au développement durable, qui sera administré par une fondation indépendante. Ce fonds stimulera la mise au point et la démonstration de nouvelles technologies environnementales, particulièrement celles qui réduisent les émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES), comme les piles à combustible et les nouvelles technologies de construction, et qui améliorent la qualité de l'air, comme les technologies d'épuration du charbon. Du financement sera consenti au secteur privé, à des centres de recherche et à d'autres instituts. Le Fonds d'appui technologique au développement durable encouragera l'innovation en aidant les entreprises à mettre au point de nouvelles technologies et à les commercialiser. Le Fonds viendra compléter d'autres programmes fédéraux et appuyer les efforts déployés pour engager les partenaires externes et promouvoir l'utilisation efficace des ressources et des technologies. 1, record 12, French, - Fonds%20d%27appui%20technologique%20au%20d%C3%A9veloppement%20durable
