The European National Committee Charter, so called 'Rome Charter' was developed to provide the National Committees of IUCN Members in Europe and the IUCN Secretariat an enhanced understanding of their mutual roles and responsibilities in working together, with a view to further strengthening and developing the role of National Committees in the implementation of the IUCN Programme. It defines Areas of cooperation/activities, Roles and responsibilities of the European National Committees, Roles and responsibilities of the IUCN Secretariat and more.
