Register now to the Minamata Online sessions on 5 October 2022. Waste management is a good example of synergies between international treaties. Parties to the Minamata Convention are to use the technical guidelines under the Basel Convention for the environmentally sound management of mercury waste. The guidelines were published in 2015 and updated at Basel Convention COP in June 2022. This session will present the updated guidelines, and identify opportunities and challenges in their use on the ground. The questions collected at this event will contribute to the capacity building project on mercury waste management funded by the government of Switzerland.
Same sessions will be convened twice on Wednesday 5 October:
- Morning session: 09h00-10h00 CEDT
- Evening session: 17h00-18h00 CEDT
