dc.descriptionThe Alliance is pleased to present its October 2025 newsletter in which we share updates about the ongoing work to phase out lead paint worldwide, including new lead-related resources, updates on progress towards laws, and lead paint in the news. We are also excited to share the dates and theme for the 2025 International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week. Please mark your calendars for 19-25 October, when the global community will come together to promote awareness and action on lead exposure with the theme No Safe Level: Act Now to End Lead Exposure. In recent months, lead has experienced growing prominence in global environmental, health and research forums. As one clear indicator, member countries at the World Health Assembly in May adopted a resolution that affirmed the global health sector’s commitment to addressing lead exposure and acknowledged the work of the GAELP in bringing together more than 100 partners to prevent children’s exposure to lead paint and minimize occupational exposure. We continue to see progress towards eliminating lead paint at the national level, including the passage of new regulations, the advancement of draft rules, and the convening of key government authorities. We are also thrilled to announce 5 new members of the Alliance.en
