The Business and Industry Forum contributes to the development of a 10-year framework on Sustainable Consumption and Production
A first Business and Industry Forum was established during the Third International Expert Meeting on the Marrakech Process in Stockholm in 2007 by the International Chamber Commerce (ICC) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). The Forum serves as a platform to discuss the role of business in promoting Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) and to ensure business input in the Marrakech Process.
