Sharing her experience on the visit to the clinics, Ms. Brundtland said,“Impressive work is being done
for the citizens of this city and for whoever who reaches these clinics.
A topic of global importance since the late 1980's,'sustainable development' refers to"development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their own needs"(Brundtland Report, 1987).
We are aware of the immediate and long-term impact of our actions, which is why we welcome the Objectives for Sustainable Development and Social Progress promoted by UNESCO and
defined by the Brundtland Commission in 1987,
whose scope is synthesized in"to meet the needs of the present, without jeopardize the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.".
