GIZ – The Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP): National Project Coordinator Advance
The Deutsche
Gesellschaft fuer Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a German
international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide
operations. The Sustainable
Consumption and Production (SCP) patterns constitute an essential building
block of a low-carbon economy. Access to credible, reliable and ‘user-friendly’
sustainability information is one of the essential conditions for the shift
towards SCP. The project will contribute to the 10 Year Framework of Programmes
on SCP (10YFP), more specifically to the Consumer Information Programme.
Advance SCP aims at increased awareness, institutional support and technical
capacities to develop and strengthen sustainability information policies and
tools for sustainable and low carbon consumption and production patterns. The
project will further support the creation of a market for climate-friendly
products which will lead to less pollution of the environment. Regional and
global trade and investments are promoted through the harmonization of
eco-labels. Through the mediation of knowledge dissemination, access to
training and further education, countries are enabled to generate new jobs and
eco-friendly products to increase their competiveness. Public authorities gain
lower life-cycle-costs of purchased services and products. Objectives
- Climate friendly criteria are integrated into the eco-labels (Type
I) of the target countries (Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia and Philippines) and
mutual recognition of the eco-labels has improved in the Southeast Asian
region. - Innovative strategies and concepts of political, economic or
financial incentives for climate friendly public procurement or eco-labels are
developed and introduced in selected Asian countries (Thailand, Indonesia,
Malaysia and Philippines). - Dissemination of best practices.
