Setting up information systems to detect illegal traffic in hazardous waste

Implementation:
This strategy features in the framework of Agenda 21 as formulated at UNCED (Rio de Janeiro, 1992), now coordinated by the United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development and implemented through national and local authorities.

Agenda 21 recommends that governments should develop appropriate information networks and alert systems to assist in detecting illegal traffic in hazardous wastes. Local communities and others could be involved in the operation of such networks and systems.
