The first meeting of the Expert Group on Public Participation took place from 7 to 8 July 2009 at the Palais des Nations in Geneva. At its first meeting, the Expert Group focused on the draft terms of reference for a future task force on public participation in decision-making on environmental matters, which was subsequently discussed by the Working Group of the Parties to the Convention at its eleventh meeting. The Expert Group also focused on the exchange of information and experience and the collection of examples of good practices in the area of public participation in environmental decision-making.
