GRID-Arendal Annual Report 2002
The Web & Information Program serves the publishing needs of GRID-Arendal projects and external clients such as UNEP and other international organizations. We provide complete web site development services, ongoing maintenance for long-term projects, and technical support to project teams. We shared our expertise in 2002 through training workshops for staff from six UNEP collaborating centers and for the Ministries of Environment of seven Caribbean countries.

Web & Information GRID-Arendal Annual Report 2002 Section 2 Program report
In addition to online information products, the Web and Information Program produced promotional materials in a variety of formats including CD-ROMs, posters, brochures, press kits, and more. We work with project teams and external clients to develop marketing concepts and designs, and produce the desired products. The largest product produced by GRID-Arendal this year was the five-meter- long continuous wall display used in UNEP’s exhibit booth at the WSSD.
