IPCP - International Panel on Chemical Pollution retweeted
It was an honour to join the @IPCPch delegation at the @UNEP #OEWG3 meeting to establish a Science Policy Panel on #Chemical #Pollution and #Waste
A somewhat disappointing result: work on the #SPP docs will have to continue in another session OEWG3.2 but scientists will persist!

"We are not separate from the environment. When you separate human life from the environment, it is only to justify the abuse or misuse of the environment."
Indigenous Peoples' voices are heard at #OEWG3. Discussions to define a science-policy panel to #BeatPollution end today.

Pollution is a global problem that impacts us all. Deadly to humans, destructive to ecosystems & disastrous for economies.
A science-policy panel is the first step to securing a pollution free world & what #OEWG3 must deliver.

“I want to stand at the Summit of the Future and say that you have future-proofed the issue of chemicals and waste.”

The new SPP offers the mechanisms to enable assessments framed as inputs to policy-making, to protect and support the recovery of local to global human and #environmentalhealth. @UofT @UofTenvironment @WUR @PyC_Gabriel

Engaged in discussions with @ThoBaSwe and @HHollert, preparing for our Thursday session focused on chemical effects on biodiversity - the first time ever @WorldBioForum 2024 in Davos

Persistent organic pollutants, including PFAS, pesticides, and insecticides, don't degrade in the environment and spread easily, with the potential for significant negative effects on human and environmental health.
Marta Venier, an @IUONeill professor, explains:

Attending #OEWG3 #SPPCWP and interested in science-based information on the precautionary principle, COIs, exploring outputs of the #SPP, etc?
We at the @IPCPch have prepared several policy briefs and scientific papers intended to support delegates! 👉ipcp.ch/publications
The OEWG 3 meeting is about to start and our five IPCP representatives are bringing several scientific papers and policy briefs to the meeting. Please help us distribute these to delegates at the meeting.

It’s Day 0⃣ of the 3rd session of the ad hoc open-ended working group to prepare proposals for a science-policy panel on the sound management of #chemicals and #waste and #pollution prevention taking place from 17 to 21 June in #GENeva!

Some things to watch out for:
❌ Confidential information should not be protected at the expense of human health and human rights.
❌ Conflicts of interest should not only be identified, they should be managed and avoided.
❌ Participation of observers must not be limited.
IPCP - International Panel on Chemical Pollution retweeted
✅ Effective #ConflictOfInterest policies to prevent undue influence on the panel’s work.
✅ A strong focus on precaution and prevention.
✅ Transparent and inclusive participation, including from Indigenous Peoples, in the panel’s work and decision-making.

Finally, @volker_turk summed it up perfectly - let’s prioritize human rights in these negotiations: xitter.cf/UNHumanRights/status/1…
The last round of negotiations to form a science policy panel is a chance to put human rights incl. healthy environment, health, food, water & science before profit. Scientific research needs to be protected from industries' conflicts of interest - @volker_turk #OEWG3
