resources by enterprises • Environmental management - through minimization of the impact on

nature by enterprises • Human development - through reduction of risks to people and

communities from enterprises and supporting their development

Since 1994, promoted globally through support for set up of National Cleaner Production Centres, in 50 developing and transition countries

Main Donors: Switzerland, Austria, Norway, Slovenia and EU National Centres in: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina (under establishment), Croatia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia
