OEWG2 opened at the International Conference Centre in Geneva, Switzerland on Monday, 15 December 2014. In the morning, participants heard opening statements from the ICCM4 President and the Head of UNEP Chemicals Branch. Discussions began on progress and gaps towards the achievement of the 2020 goal, first discussing regional achievements, strengths and challenges, progress in achieving the objectives of the SAICM Overarching Policy Strategy (OPS), and the implementation of the health sector strategy. In the afternoon the OEWG examined the draft Overall Orientation and Guidance (OOG) for achieving the 2020 goal, and the SDGs and sound chemicals management beyond 2020. Two contact groups were formed, one on the OOG, the other on the SDGs and chemicals management beyond 2020.
