Abstract: With thousands of industrial chemicals being marketed worldwide,and new chemicals becoming more complex,it is increasingly clear that a robust life cycle management system for chemicals and waste and a systematic approach towards a circular economy is required. A circular economy eliminates waste and pollution,keeps products and materials in use and regenerates natural systems. This publication describes UNDP's interventions on Chemicals and Waste Management,which aim to achieve circularity.
