“Sustainable Asia”: a Regional Case Study Handbook on SCP Launched

In January 2017, the SWITCH-Asia Network Facility published “Sustainable Asia”, one of the most comprehensive studies to date on the status of sustainable consumption and production (SCP) in various Asian countries.

The book focuses on key sectors such as tourism and manufacturing, and examines in detail SCP approaches and innovative solutions demonstrated by projects supported by the European Union’s SWITCH-Asia Programme as well as country-specific policies to promote SCP, making “Sustainable Asia” a reference for practitioners, researchers and policymakers alike.

Other recent publications by the Network Facility include a technical briefing on “The role of SCP in Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation” and a magazine on the Circular Economy in Asia.

The EU-funded SWITCH-Asia Network Facility, implemented by a consortium participated by the CSCP, promotes knowledge on and dissemination of SCP best practices from 95 grant projects supported by the SWITCH-Asia Programme in 17 developing countries in Asia. More information and all publications are available on www.switch-asia.eu
