About SIDS Policy & Practice

SIDS Policy & Practice is a knowledge management project on UN and intergovernmental activities addressing small island developing States (SIDS), managed by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) Reporting Services. The project was launched in September 2010, during the UN General Assembly's High-level Review Meeting on the Implementation of the Mauritius Strategy for the Further Implementation (MSI) of the Programme of Action for the Sustainable Development of Small Island Developing States. The project is conducted in close cooperation with the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs' Division for Sustainable Development (DESA), in conjunction with the revitalization of SIDSnet, in support of the Barbados Programme of Action, which called for support for “the development of a small islands’ sustainable development information network to facilitate the exchange of experience among small island developing States.” IISD RS is fully responsible for the content posted on SIDS Policy & Practice.
