As requested by UN/GA Resolution 65/164, this report examines the historic and evolving relationship of humankind with nature, as reflected in environmental legislation, and with consideration of the question, “nature: to have or to be?” It recommends that States:
- consider a declaration recognizing nature’s intrinsic value and its regenerating capacity, in the context of UNCSD (Rio+20);
- improve the knowledge base on Harmony with Nature; and
- continue showcasing, through the UN’s sustainable development websites, the work being undertaken to advance development for all in Harmony with Nature, integrating the economic, social and environmental pillars.
