ICETT
or the International Center for Environmental Technology Transfer
was established in Japan to carry out the smooth transfer
of Japan’s environmental conservation systems in order
to contribute to the conservation of the global environment
and the sustainable development of the world economy. In particular,
ICETT implements training and technical guidance, research
and development, surveys and provision of information, and
activities intending to promote information exchange and raise
public awareness.
IPCT- ITDI has partnered with ICETT and DOST
regional offices to implement the Capacity Building of Regional
Capabilities on Cleaner Production, Energy Efficiency and
Environmental Management Systems (CBRC). CBRC aims to:
- Develop training modules on tools on cleaner
production, energy efficiency and environmental management
system that are applicable to SMEs
- Conduct trainings and workshops on the
developed training modules
- Conduct CP assessments at participating
SME facilities
- Document tangible and/or visual improvements
of both environmental and economic performance of participating
SME facilities
- Develop policy recommendations to national
and local governments to enhance the promotion of CP, energy
efficiency and EMS
The project has conducted four “Assessors’
Training on Cleaner Production” that trained 51
CP assessors in the National Capital Region, Region IV, VI
and X. Moreover, 12 companies have been assisted on Cleaner
Production Assessment. Four CP Seminars in
the four pilot regions have also been conducted to disseminate
the output of the project and create awareness on Cleaner
Production for the top management of various companies in
the regions.
The CBRC Project has also implemented the
following activities:
