Global workshop on enhancing national cooperation and coordination for the implementation of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm conventions

Venue: International Environment House II, Chemin de Balexert 7-9, Chatelaine, Geneva, SwitzerlandBackground: The decisions on enhancing cooperation and coordination among the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm conventions by the three Conferences of the Parties (Basel COP9 decision IX/10, Rotterdam COP4 decision RC-4/11, Stockholm COP4 decision SC-4/34) recognized that the overarching goal of all three conventions is the protection of human health and the environment for the promotion of sustainable development and that the objective of enhanced coordination and cooperation among the three conventions is to contribute to the achievement of that goal. A coordinated and cooperative approach at national level contributes to a common and coherent national approach to, and understanding of, chemicals and waste-related issues. This will, in turn, enhance the streamlining of policy, institutional and legal frameworks and, therefore, provide parties with elements for a life cycle based implementation of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm conventions.Working languages: English
