Chemicals in products and hazardous substances within the life cycle of electrical and electronic products have been longstanding emerging policy issues under the Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management (SAICM). To further advance these issues, a GEF-funded project on “Global best practices on emerging chemical policy issues of concern under SAICM” has been launched in 2019, running through 2022. Amongst others, the activities under the project aim at increasing the ambition of different stakeholders to track and control chemicals along the value chains of electrical and electronic products. To provide a strategic overview of the capacity and models that exist for sustainable management of electronics,the project includes the development of a review of legislative and regulatory approaches for prohibiting the use of Chemicals of Concern (CoC) in electronics including the transposition of the EU Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS). This report provides this overview.
