Organized by UNITAR in collaboration with several international organizations, this thematic workshop is open to countries, international organizations, and NGOs. The workshop is linked to and prepares for UNITAR/IOMC supported pilot country projects in 2004-2005 during which three developing countries (Jamaica, Chad and Jordan) will explore in practice how to implement synergies at the country level. Following a request made by several governments at PrepCom 1 of SAICM, the outcomes of the workshop will also inform an information paper on “Opportunities for Integrated Chemicals and Waste Management Capacity Building” which UNITAR will submit to PrepCom 2 of SAICM in October 2004.
