The Baltic Marine Environment Protection Commission – also known as the Helsinki Commission (HELCOM) – is an intergovernmental organisation (IGO) and a regional sea convention in the Baltic Sea area. A regional platform for environmental policy making, HELCOM was established in 1974 to protect the marine environment of the Baltic Sea from all sources of pollution.
Opis
The HELCOM Stakeholder Conference "Towards a Sea Unaffected by Hazardous Substances: The ‘One Baltic’ Approach" 2025 will take place on 31 March 2025 from 10:00 to 16:00 EEST (Helsinki time) The one-day online event will focus on hazardous substances. Registrations are open until March 27.
Hazardous substances (chemical contaminants/pollution) frequently enter the Baltic Sea, placing immense pressure on its ecosystems. Over 100,000 chemicals are commercially available across Europe, most of which are rarely monitored in the marine environment, and many of which have unknown toxicity or transformation products. Although several legacy chemicals have been banned and EU regulations have improved the management framework, the ongoing release of many compounds remains a significant threat to the Baltic Sea ecosystem.
The conference will review the latest advancements in applying a new holistic approach to managing hazardous substances, to ensure the health of the Baltic Sea through the ‘One Baltic’ approach. Building on existing knowledge, it will identify ways a broad stakeholder community can support key actions toward the Baltic Sea Action Plan (BSAP) goal ‘a Baltic Sea unaffected by hazardous substances’.
