Introduction /Objectives

The International HCH & Pesticides Association, IHPA, was founded in July 1998 with the aim of

facilitating and promoting international co-operation and the exchange of experiences within

management of pollution problems stemming from the production and use of HCH and other

unwanted pesticides world-wide.

The IHPA supports the work towards sustainable solutions in production and application of

pesticides.

The objective of the IHPA is to solve the problems of HCH and pesticides contamination in soil,

waste and water world-wide and to contribute actively in the search for sustainable solutions in

production and application of pesticides.

The association promotes international co-operation of all parties, involved in the field of pesticides

such as international organisations, public authorities, crop protection organisations, producers,

NGO’s, contractors, consultants and those who are concerned. Pursuing the objectives the IHPA

organises the International Forum and publishes the Forum proceedings and thereby makes

information available. Hence, the IHPA seeks funding and sponsorship. The IHPA does not pursue

any commercial or political aims.
