Project Description

This project aims to pilot an innovative modular approach encompassing a broader resource efficiency agenda covering material-water-energy for generics’ manufacturers through firm-level and sector-level support. Tailored advice will be provided to private sector pharma manufacturers on the adoption of solutions to reduce material, energy and water use leading to better efficiency and productivity of resources; and/or improved wastewater treatment. The sector-level work is intended to support activities which would allow for increased uptake of best practices and resource efficiency measures/tools that can deliver benefits beyond the firms supported directly. This will be done through the creation of knowledge materials and dissemination through awareness raising events and training/capacity building workshops undertaken jointly with local/regional aggregators.
