SAICM: Beyond 2020 Perspectives

In 2017, as the 2020 timeline for the SAICM prices to finalize was approaching, IPEN and Pesticide Action Network developed these 2020 Perspectives to advocate for an ongoing global policy forum to address the global threats from toxic chemicals and waste. The papers describe SAICM’s importance, how chemical safety can contribute to sustainable development, and how actions should be financed. In addition, the papers deal with 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.
