​The International Chemical Safety Development Fund™ ​
The ICSDF aims to improve the delivery of chemical safety worldwide by correcting imbalances between regional safety regulations that negatively affect the safety of people.
​
The ICSDF focuses its investments on several key priority areas. This is known as 'thematic concentration':
​
-
Awareness and training;
-
Safety Data Sheets and chemical risk assessment;
-
Professional support;
-
Reward and recognition.
​
The ICSDF resources allocated to these priorities will depend on the specific person or business.
​
-
Awareness and training, at least 50% of funds;
-
Safety Data Sheets and chemical risk assessment, maximum 20% of funds.
​
Furthermore, some ICSDF resources must be channelled specifically towards professional support projects:
​
-
Safety consultant partnerships: 15%;
-
Service development (including SaaS): 5%; and
-
Businesses involved in the chemical industry: 5%.
​
ICSDF are currently supporting the following projects:
