Africa review report on chemicals : main report
Abstract
African countries have, under agenda 21 of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED,1992), committed themselves to implement 11 priority action points (chapters 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 14, 17, 18, 19, 20, and 21 of Agenda 21) in order to address
environmentally sound management of chemicals in the continent. The commitment has been further reinforced by resolutions made at the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD) in its Johannesburg Plan of Implementation, and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Progress towards realization of these aims and objectives will be reviewed as part of the 2010-2011 cycle of the Commission for Sustainable Development (CSD). This report
assesses the status of environmentally sound management of chemicals in Africa against these international commitments.
