The United Nations Environment Programme is pleased to announce that the First International Conference of the Global Framework on Chemicals, adopted in September 2023 at the Fifth International Conference on Chemicals Management (ICCM5), will take place from 16 to 20 November 2026 at the Geneva International Conference Center in Switzerland.
UNEP invites you to join us for an international conference featuring a high-level segment, bringing together governments, industry and non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations, for a planet free of harm from chemicals and waste.
The Global Framework on Chemicals provides the foundation for a future in which humanity benefits from chemicals in a safe and sustainable way. Its five strategic objectives and 28 targets guide countries and stakeholders to address the full lifecycle of chemicals, including products and waste, while preventing harmful impacts on human health and the environment.
Note: Sunday, 15 November 2026, is reserved for Briefings and Regional Meetings.
