The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety and Consumer Protection will co-host the event with the Inter-Organization Programme for the Sound Management of Chemicals (IOMC). The IOMC organisations include the World Bank, WHO, UNDP, FAO, ILO, UNITAR, UNIDO, OECD, UNEP and the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions. The Forum aims to facilitate high-level dialogue on cross-sectoral cooperation to implement the Global Framework on Chemicals and help tackle the pollution crisis.

Nearly one year since the fifth session of the International Conference on Chemicals Management (ICCM5) adopted the Global Framework on Chemicals (GFC) – For a Planet free of Harm from Chemicals and Waste, the 3rd Berlin Forum will take stock of progress made in implementing the GFC with all stakeholders and sectors. What have we achieved so far? What are the next steps? How can we intensify our efforts? How can we cooperate efficiently across sectors?
The Executive Secretary of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions has kindly agreed to moderate the Forum.
