Waste Management and
Resource Efficiency |
 |
| Towards environmentally sound material flows and to realise sustainable production and consumption in the Asia-Pacific region |
|
 |
| Rapid economic and population growth is causing serious problems related to resource consumption and waste management in Asia. The project conducts strategic policy research on both upstream (production, consumption and distribution) and downstream (waste and recycling) issues of resource use. Special attention is given to international recycling and linkages between product and recycling policy and chemicals management policy. |
