The 10-year framework of programmes on sustainable consumption and production patterns (10YFP) is a global framework of action to enhance international cooperation to accelerate the shift towards sustainable consumption and production (SCP) in both developed and developing countries.
“[To ensure] future prosperity ... economic growth [must be decoupled] from rising rates of natural resource use and the environmental impacts that occur in both consumption and production stages of product life cycles.”
UNMGCY engages in all the formal meetings and avenue of the initiative, including the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA), the thematic review of the framework at the HLPF, the review process of SDG 12, and the multi-stakeholder process of the framework.
A a member of UNMGCY, you have a chance to contribute to all these deliberations and provide inputs at all stages of work. Opportunities are shared through email servers and communication channels.
