Programme Operations and Achievements Overview The Asia-Pacific Forum for Environment and Development (<strong>APFED</strong>) was launched as a regional group of prominent experts in 2001 to address critical issues and to propose new models for equitable and sustainable development. In its second phase (<strong>APFED</strong> II), which commenced in 2005, the following Award and Showcase Programme were carried out as a major part of <strong>APFED</strong> II activities.*1. Background of the <strong>APFED</strong> Award and Showcase Programme <strong>APFED</strong> Award The Ryutaro Hashimoto <strong>APFED</strong> Award for Good Practices was launched in 2006 as a part of the <strong>APFED</strong> II Knowledge Initiative Programme to acknowledge the exemplary practices in promoting sustainable development in Asia and the Pacific. Over the 2006–2009 period, 217 projects were submitted for the Award selection process and Award prizes were given to 27 projects in total. IGES spearheaded case studies of the winning projects in collaboration with the member organisations of the Asia-Pacific Regional Network of Research Institutions for Environmental Management and Sustainable Development (NetRes), or alternatively, local experts with the view to facilitating the dissemination of knowledge and expertise on innovative practices for achieving sustainable development and their potential replication across the region. Showcase Programme The <strong>APFED</strong> Showcase Programme is designed to enable local stakeholders to promote innovation in policy development, technology application, social mobilization and partnership building for achieving sustainable development in the Asia-Pacific region. The Showcase Programme was commenced with two test projects in 2005 and was launched as a full programme in 2006. The Showcase Programme has been supported by the Ministry of Environment Japan. The United Nations Environment Programme-Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific (UNEP/ROAP) has been coordinating its operations as the Showcase Facility Secretariat. Under the <strong>APFED</strong> Showcase Programme, a grant of up to 30,000 USD is provided to support a selected project in Asia and the Pacific. UNEP/ROAP, together with IGES, supports the selection process with the <strong>APFED</strong> Showcase Panel that consists of five <strong>APFED</strong> members. A NetRes member provides technical guidance for each of the projects, and monitors and evaluates the projects. With the applications for the 2010 Showcase Programme, the total number of applications came to 978, and 59 projects in 20 countries were selected from 2005 to 2010. Climate change, 3R and Biodiversity are designated as priority thematic areas while water and other cross-cutting projects have also been supported. (The following figures and table show the total number of selected projects from 2005 to 2009.) NetRes Members The following are the NetRes members: Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences (CSES), China Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES), Japan Korea Environment Institute (KEI), Korea Sustainable Development Policy Institute (SDPI), Pakistan Singapore Institute for International Affairs (SIIA), Singapore Thailand Environment Institute (TEI), Thailand The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), India University of the South Pacific (USP), Fiji *1: The overall activities and their achievements of <strong>APFED</strong> II were described in the <strong>APFED</strong> II Final Report available at: http://www.apfed.net/apfed2/<strong>APFED</strong>_II_Final_Report_for_CD.pdf 22
