UNEP-KEMI : Project on Development of Legal and Institutional Infrastructures for the Sound Management of Chemicals in Developing Countries and Countries with Economies in Transition.

Description:

Swedish Chemicals Agency (KEMI) and UNEP Chemicals Branch are collaborating to develop a project to assist developing countries and countries with economies in transition in developing national institutions and infrastructures including legislation, regulation and assessment of chemicals together with monitoring and enforcement.  To attain this goal, the project has three specific objectives:

·         Identify and assess the needs and barriers (excluding financing concerns) for the development of chemicals control legal and institutional infrastructure in developing countries and countries with economies in transition;

·         Develop a toolkit for facilitating national legal and institutional infrastructures development and test the toolkit in a number of countries from the four UN regions, focusing on developing countries and countries with economies in transition; and

·         Ensure that the toolkit for aiding the development of national institutions and legal infrastructures explicitly meets the needs of national governments.

As a start, a series of regional workshops were held in four developing countries or countries with economies in transition, and building on the conclusions of the workshops, a draft toolkit was developed.

 Why this Tool/Guidance?

Assistance is provided on legislation and regulation.
