dc.description | Through the challenging times worldwide, the efforts of the Global Alliance to Eliminate Lead Paint continue to build momentum in collaboration with countries establishing laws and paint companies working toward reformulation, with the goal of global phase-out of the manufacture, sale and import of paints containing lead. As we rebuild and recover from the pandemic, eliminating lead paint is an achievable goal that will prevent the exposure of many future generations of children to lead in paint.
To share progress toward this goal, the Global Alliance to Eliminate Lead Paint is pleased to present its June newsletter. Specifically, the Alliance is proud to share recent efforts to support industry in paint reformulation.
Join the action! The annual International Lead Poisoning Prevention Week will take place this year during the week of 24-30 October. All are invited to participate in this week of action by organizing programs and sharing information about the importance of eliminating lead paint. Additional materials will be posted this summer on the campaign website.
We hope you will use these materials and information to develop effective programs to work towards eliminating lead paint in your community, company or country. Wishing you all a safe and healthy summer, without added lead! | en_US |
