Global Action-Other Forums

UNEA, Science-to-Policy Panel, and Biodiversity

IPEN members participate in the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA), Science-Policy Panel meetings, the UN Ocean Conference, and other policy bodies, providing global data and local knowledge to enhance the deliberations and address global threats from hazardous chemicals.

The UN Environment Assembly is the governing body for the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and sets the global environmental agenda, creating policy guidance and developing international environmental law. IPEN and its members contribute to the Assembly with original science and policy solutions to address concerns around toxic chemicals and waste.

UNEA Meetings

Science-Policy Panel

In 2022, at UNEA-5, the Assembly adopted a resolution to establish a new Science-Policy Panel to support global action on chemicals, waste, and pollution. IPEN advised creating a panel based on sound, independent science; the precautionary principle; the industry duty to disclose information; and citizens’ right to know. 

In June 2025, the panel was established as the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Panel on Chemicals, Waste and Pollution (ISP-CWP). The first session of its Plenary (its decision-making body) was held in February 2026, where IPEN distributed Brzi pregledi calling for an independent, transparent body and followed the meeting with a press statement noting the lack of progress on key issues. IPEN continues to advocate for independent science in promoting meaningful protections from hazardous chemicals.
