If you choose tailored reports, the size and format should be adapted to your target groups. They
can range from a small pocket book (e.g., The Environment in your Pocket, key facts and figures
on the environment of the United Kingdom) to hardcover binders like Vital Climate Graphics on
Africa .

The South Asia Youth State of the Environment report was named Children of the monsoon by
the youth of this sub-region. This publication was prepared by South Asian Youth, going through
the process of design and the consultation workshop. Presentation of the graphics, outline and
selection of the names of the chapters all were done by the youth considering the youth interest.
For example, youth selected the term “Mission H2O” for the water issue; similarly the Air Issues
the title was “Breath of Death.” The report has presented future scenarios in a simple way by

selecting graphics the youth themselves have drawn. http://www.rrcap.unep.org/reports/soe/sa_

Apart from printed materials, the trend over the several last years has been to focus on
developing electronic products such as databases, portals, gateways, CD-ROMs and other
electronic products.

Additional and supplementary formats for environmental information include:

? Synthesis reports that are aimed at top political decision-makers.
? Posters are widely used to visualize and extract key messages in a larger format.
