Capacity-Building for the Sound Management of Chemicals The IOMC Toolbox for Decision-Making in Chemicals Management is a problem-solving tool that enables countries to identify the most appropriate and efficient national actions to address specific national problems related to chemicals management. It is managed by the Inter-Organisation Programme for the Sound Management of Chemicals (IOMC). The IOMC Toolbox has been redesigned to provide easier and more direct access to these resources. This new and improved platform enables users to access information with fewer steps and clicks. The new IOMC Toolbox was launched officially at the beginning of November 2020.
The OECD continues to promote the IOMC Toolbox and to use it in its capacity-building efforts. Since December 2020, webinars have been organised, both on general topics such as PRTRs, Addressing illegal trade and traffic of industrial chemicals, pesticides and waste and Industrial chemicals management and on addressing specific training requests from countries such as Morocco.
