United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in collaboration with Supreme Council for Environment organised this capacity-building workshop on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) to enhance capacity and knowledge of West Asian countries in the development and implementation of EPR schemes, as one more tool for the acceleration of circular economy and improvements on waste management in the region. The event, participated by eight Member States, provided a forum for West Asian countries to engage in knowledge sharing and capacity building, with a particular focus on EPR.
