Since this is quite a long document we will break it into two parts to be edited by two Online Volunteers, who will need to work very closely to ensure the consistency of terminology. The Online Volunteers will be provided with the UN Editorial Manual as editorial guidance. By providing editorial support, the Online Volunteers will accelerate the development impact. Online volunteers contributing to the editing will be credited on the end product.
