Protecting people and the environment from hazardous chemicals
We face a dramatic number of deaths and illnesses from hazardous chemicals as well as air, water and soil pollution and contamination. This is impacting present and future generations as well as our environment. It is therefore absolutely critical that we strengthen the sound management of chemicals and waste – through inclusive, effective, inspiring and innovative laws and policies. More ambitious worldwide action by all stakeholders is urgently required. This is why in 2021, the Future Policy Award is dedicated to the most effective policy solutions that minimise the adverse effects of exposure to chemicals on human health, with a focus on children’s health, and the environment. The Award highlights that solutions do exist; solutions that are ambitious and impactful.
On 6th of July 2021, we celebrated the winners of this year’s Future Policy Award! You can watch the recording on our YouTube Channel.
