Villach Conference  

Definition

  • The conference held in Villach, Austria, from October 9 to 15, 1985, was the result of the continuing work of several international entities. The background to the conference and the starting point for internationally cohesive attempts to understand the issues related to the stratospheric ozone layer depletion and climate change have been traced to the United Nations (UN) Conference on Human Development in Stockholm in 1972.
