Eco-Industrial Parks: Toward Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development

Published on Sep 29, 2016

UNIDO

One of UNIDO’s contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals is facilitating the establishment of eco-industrial parks. They combine the driving of industrialization and the transfer of technologies with environmental gains and social responsibility. The global trend of rapidly increasing resource consumption and waste generation is caused by a globally expanding industrial sector. If the current business-as-usual practices are sustained, scientists estimate that by 2050 three planets Earth will be needed. Thus, eco-industrial parks promote circular economy, water resource conservation, recycling and the sound management of waste as well as the utilization of industrial synergies.
