The National Industry Promotion Authority (NIPA) announced yesterday that it intends to hold a workshop entitled “Transformation to Cleaner Production and Sustainable Development in the Industrial Sector”, in line with paragraph (11) of Article (3) of Resolution No. (311) of 2012 regarding the establishment of the NIPA. NIPA has not yet announced the place or date of this workshop.
This stipulates that NIPA assists industrial projects in the fields of renewal, innovation and technological development, within the framework of rational environmental practices and promoting a culture of quality and sustainability.
NIPA says the workshop comes as part of its constant endeavour to promote the concepts of sustainable development and move towards a green economy and environmentally friendly industry,
Reducing waste at source
CNIPA said cleaner Production is an integrated environmental and strategic approach applied to industrial processes, products and services, with the aim of reducing waste and pollution from the source, not just treating them after formation. This approach is based on increasing the efficiency of the use of raw materials, reducing energy and water consumption, while reducing environmental impacts and improving economic performance.
Best Local Product Award
In this context, and as part of its efforts to stimulate the national industrial sector, the Authority announces the establishment of the Best Local Product Award for National Industries for the second year in a row.
This aims to encourage industrial excellence and enhance competitiveness, as a strong incentive to raise the level of local production in Libya and stimulate projects to adopt sustainable and environmentally friendly production practices. The target sectors of the award will be determined later.
