2 UNEP Overview 1. UN s global environmenal auhoriy 2. Universal membership and UN Environmen Assembly Mission: To provide leadership and encourage parnership in caring for he environmen by inspiring, informing, and enabling naions and peoples o improve heir qualiy of life wihou compromising ha of fuure generaions. 3. Focusing on seven prioriies: Climae change, Disasers and conflic, Ecosysems managemen, Environmenal governance, Harmful subsances and hazardous wase, Resource efficiency susainable consumpion & producion Environmen under review

5 UNEP SWITCH-Asia Policy Suppor - Overview

6 SWITCH-Asia Policy suppor Mongolia Mongolia has poenial for a broader naional Resource Efficiency and Susainable Consumpion and Producion programme due o SDV and NGDAP. UNEP suppor going forward may focus on suppor for policy monioring and implemenaion. SWITCH-Asia I Aciviies Green Building Guidelines for School Buildings Developing he Green School Design and Energy modelling Naural resource use daabase for Mongolia (118 indicaors wih ime series daa), Counry analysis Marke assessmen, legal review and prioriizaion of producs for Susainable Public Procuremen Way forward Naional Acion plan for SCP in he Green Developmen Policy Acion Plan Susainable Tourism Susainable developmen in eriary educaion Susainable Public Procuremen Indicaors and daa for resource efficiency

7 SWITCH-Asia Projecs Mongolia Green Producs and Labelling: 370 companies o improve heir producs and reduce waer, energy and maerials consumpion hrough cleaner producion and eco-design Greener Consrucion Projec: Invesing in research and developmen of greener consrucion producs and pracices Sheep Wool Building Maerials: Turning Sheep Wool ino Environmenally Friendly Building Maerial - Inegraed Approach for Supply Chain Developmen

8 Definiion of SCP Wha is Susainable Consumpion and Producion?

9 Definiion of SCP Simples and mos comprehensive definiion (UNEP 2011): SCP is a holisic approach o minimising he negaive environmenal impacs from consumpion and producion sysems while promoing qualiy of life for all

10 The SDGs

11 SCP is Transversal Access o naural resources for energy, food, waer Susainable food sysems Chemicals in air/waer polluion Educaion for susainable lifesyles Reduce waer polluion Waer efficiency Renewables Energy efficiency Resource efficiency Susainable Tourism Susainable infrasrucure, indusry Environmenally sound echnologies Susainable urbanisaion, ranspor Resource efficien ciies Climae change miigaion Susainable fisheries, ourism Need o apply SCP o rade

12 Policy needs daa a dashboard Inform abou issues and rends: wha is resource efficiency and where do we sand? Agenda seing: is his imporan enough for policy aenion? Informed public debae: le s ge facs sraigh (and focus where i maers) Underpin policy goals and policy saemens in he form of arges: where are we now and where should we aim o be? Measure progress in achieving policy objecives (incl. SDG reporing): is he policy working or should we adjus our approach?

13 Wha are naural resources? Naural resources are he physical basis of our socia and economic aciviies.
