This is an announcement for the paper "A characterization of the Radon-Nikodym property" by Robert Deville and Oscar Madiedo.

Abstract: It is well known that every bounded below and non increasing sequence in the real line converges. We give a version of this result valid in Banach spaces with the Radon-Nikodym property, thus extending a former result of A. Proch'azka.
