Practical Guidance for Strategic Action to Advance Green and Sustainable Chemistry

In 2022 Member States adopted UNEA Resolution 5/7 which welcomes UNEP’s Green and Sustainable Chemistry: Framework Manual, and encourages its use as appropriate. In response to this call, UNEP is working to operationalize the information and recommendations in the Framework Manual into action. The final chapter of the Manual on Green and Sustainable Chemistry Road Maps by Stakeholders encourages leading stakeholders to build with relevant stakeholders a coherent plan for action as a means to enhance and scale-up global action to advance green and sustainable chemistry.

The information and materials on the practical guidance webpage aim to provide stakeholders with practical guidance to carry out the planning and implementation of strategic action to advance green and sustainable chemistry. Along with the Framework Manual, the guidance draws upon the shared experiences of stakeholders who have built strategic initiatives that are relevant to green and sustainable chemistry.
