Road to the First International Conference of the Global Framework on Chemicals

Road to the First International Conference of the Global Framework on Chemicals Series

Member States have adopted agreements that set common goals and targets to tackle the triple planetary crisis, including the Global Framework on Chemicals – For a Planet Free of Harm from Chemicals and Waste (GFC), adopted in Bonn in September 2023 and supported by a Secretariat hosted in Geneva. This Framework provides the essential building blocks for a future in which humanity benefits from chemicals in a safe and sustainable manner, while avoiding their negative impacts.

In preparation to the First International Conference of the Global Framework on Chemicals, to be held in Geneva from 16 to 20 November 2026, the Global Framework on Chemicals secretariat and the Geneva Environment Network are hosting a series of events providing an outlook on key aspects of the Conference, offering member states and stakeholders opportunities to share perspectives and expectations.
