Hugo, G.2006-07-252006-07-251995Australian Geographer, 1995; 26(1):53-600004-91821465-3311http://hdl.handle.net/2440/14101"The separation of environmental and population issues globally is reflected in the fact that the setting of international agendas to tackle them was for all intents and purposes undertaken at separate international meetings--the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 and the International Population Conference in Cairo in 1994. This paper presents an overview of Australia's international involvement in population issues and suggests that until recently Australia had played a minor political role in international population initiatives primarily, and perhaps ironically, because it has been a world leader in demographic research and teaching for several decades."enEnvironmentDemographyPopulation DynamicsInternational CooperationDeveloped CountriesPoliticsPublic PolicyPopulationHealth PlanningPolicy MakingOrganization and AdministrationAustraliaPacific IslandsCongresses as TopicPower, PsychologicalAustralia and International Treaties : PopulationJournal article0030003487001995135010.1080/00049189508703130A1995RC225000092-s2.0-002929493167493
