30 March - 2 April 2004 Geneva, Geneve, Switzerland
THEMATIC WORKSHOP ON SYNERGIES FOR CAPACITY BUILDING UNDER INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS ADDRESSING CHEMICALS AND WASTE MANAGEMENT

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.
