Description:	The World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) took place from late August to early September in 2002 in Johannesburg. The events held during this period went far beyond the official inter-governmental negotiations at the Sandton Convention Centre. Events included: a ten-day International Science Forum; the People’s Earth Summit; a full calendar of meetings at the World Conservation Union (IUCN) Environment Centre; a gathering of landless peoples from Africa and the world; the Global People’s Forum at the NASREC venue; events and displays in the specially created Ubuntu Village; the Water Dome exhibition centre; major conferences organized by business, local government, legislators and parliamentarians; and a wealth of other activities. And beyond this, elsewhere in South Africa, an international conference on responsible tourism was held in Cape Town; the Children’s Earth Summit took place in Soweto; and in Kimberley there was the Summit of Indigenous Peoples
