UNEP
UNEP’s Industry and Environment centre in Paris was established in 1975 to bring industry, governments
and non-governmental organizations together to work towards environmentally-sound forms of industrial
development. This is done by:
– encouraging the incorporation of environmental criteria in industrial development
– formulating and facilitating the implementation of principles and procedures to protect the environment
– promoting the use of low- and non-waste technologies
– stimulating the worldwide exchange of information and experience on environmentally-sound forms
of industrial development.
The Centre has developed a programme on Awareness and Preparedness for Emergencies at Local Level
(APELL) to prevent and to respond to technological accidents, and a programme to promote worldwide
Cleaner Production.
