dc.descriptionThe virtual workshop, organized by the Chemicals and Health Branch and the Resources and Market Branch of the United Nations Environment Programme, brought together key stakeholders to explore different approaches for addressing chemicals of concern in electronics. The focus was on how existing eco-labelling schemes cover chemicals of concern and on regulatory approaches that address chemicals of concern in electronics. This workshop was part of the project entitled “Global best practices on emerging chemical policy issues of concern under the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management”, which was launched in 2019, runs through 2022, and is funded by the Global Environment Facility. Activities under the project include analyzing the existing landscape of tools and approaches to track and address chemicals of concern in electronics and exploring opportunities to advance circularity in this sector. The workshop was attended by 41 persons. The list of participants is provided as an annex.en
