To close, Heidi Morka of #Norway calls the #SPPCWP vital for addressing the #TriplePlanetaryCrisis and filling knowledge gaps. She urges a shift from chemical-by-chemical to integrated strategies to be more effective in addressing chemicals, waste and pollution.
@ingerandersen.bsky.social: Today is momentous and one for the ages: “the day that the world decided to come together and make the best science available on #chemicals, #pollution and waste to the world.” #SPPCWP
@unep.org After several days of intense negotiations in contact groups, participants rejoined in plenary on Wednesday night to report back from deliberations and finalize work on establishing the science policy panel on #chemicals #waste and #pollution #SPPCWP
#Live now!
On the Road to #SPPCWP #OEWG3.2, this #BRSCOPs2025 side event shows how a science-policy panel on sound mgt. of #chemicals, #waste & #pollution prevention supports efforts to protect human health & environment.

Presenting the next steps in the preparations for the resumed #SPPCWP #OEWG3, Zhanyun Wang highlights expected outcomes, key topics clusters, and the possibility to send written comments on the meeting documents by 16 May 2025 to the Secretariat via email.
Diana Rizzolio, @genevaenvironmentnetwork.org Coordinator, presents the various international environmental negotiations where #LRGs can engage, including negotiations on a legally-binding treaty on #PlasticPollution, #SPPCWP, amongst others that tackle the #TriplePlanetaryCrisis.
"High-quality, policy-relevant scientific evidence without being policy prescriptive can be delivered... when there is a robust foundation in place."
Thank you for attending this session on the Road to #SPPCWP #OEWG3.2!

Delegates at #SPPCWP were to make big steps in establishing scientific foundations for better managing #chemicals and #waste.
But they did not reach consensus on the “foundational document” outlining the basic structure of the science-policy panel.
