آفاق IPEN ما بعد 2020

Prior to the Global Framework on Chemicals (which succeeded SAICM), the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM) was the only international agreement that addresses the full range of known and newly discovered health and environmental concerns associated with the production and use of chemicals. The 2006 decision that established SAICM expired in 2020 and IPEN engaged in the global process to determine what comes next. IPEN and Pesticide Action Network collaborated to produce a series of documents that highlighted civil society views on key topics for the Beyond 2020 process. The papers described SAICM’s importance, how chemical safety can contribute to sustainable development, and how actions should be financed. In addition, the papers addressed the relationship between women and chemical safety, how the industry should reduce and eliminate hazard through design, and the connection between human rights and chemical safety.
