WHAT ARE THE MAIN OBJECTIVES OF THE WSSD GHS PARTNERSHIP?
The goal of the WSSD GHS Partnership is to mobilize support and catalyze partnerships for coordinated activities at the global, regional and national levels to strengthen capacities in developing countries and countries in transition towards effective implementation of the GHS. The WSSD Global Partnership also strives to strengthen capacities at all levels and sectors to ensure a higher degree of chemical labelling and related precautionary measures for industrial chemicals, agricultural chemicals, chemicals in transport and consumer chemicals. In the medium and long-term, the Partnership is expected to lead to a decrease in environmental and human health related effects attributable to the use of hazardous chemicals. It thus makes a direct contribution to important objectives of sustainable development, including protection of marginalized groups, protection of food and water supplies and drinking water, and poverty eradication.
