Show Notes

Thanks to the leadership of Germany, the hard work of negotiators, and the spirit of compromise, the world has agreed to the Global Framework on Chemicals – backed by a High-Level Declaration that provides political impetus to drive the deal’s implementation.

The RSC's Dan Korbel, Steph Metzger, and Camilla Alexander-White all attended the fifth session of the International Conference on Chemicals Management (ICCM5), in Germany. Here the team caught up with delegates and spoke about how this new framework provides a vision for a planet free of harm from chemicals and waste and creates a safe, healthy, and sustainable future for all.

Hosted by Dan Korbel and Steph Metzger.
