Seventh United Nations Environmental Assembly (UNEA-7)

IPEN members from around the world participated in the seventh session of the U.N. Environment Assembly (UNEA-7) in Nairobi, Kenya from 8 to 12 December, 2025. The theme of the session was “Advancing sustainable solutions for a resilient planet.”

In previous UNEA meetings IPEN has advocated for strong global protections from toxic chemicals, including successfully working for adoption of the resolution for a Plastics Treaty at UNEA-5.

UNEA is the world’s top decision-making body on the environment, aiming to help restore harmony between humanity and nature and improve the lives of the world’s most vulnerable people.
