renewed energy along with our partners. The week
in Punta del Este, Uruguay, was more than a
milestone—it was a powerful moment of connection

sectors and regions came together in person to

work. </SPAN></P>

spotlight the Framework’s growing relevance to
industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators.
Kay Williams was joined by Bob Diderich, Head of
Division at the Organisation for Economic

Executive Director at the European Chemical
Regions Network (ECRN); and Szymon Domagalski,
Policy Advisor with the Polish Chamber of Chemical

emphasizing the need for inclusive, practical
solutions. Panelists highlighted how the Framework
complements legally binding agreements, promotes
harmonization across markets, and offers tools
such as the upcoming Industry Implementation
Programmes to help sectors align with
sustainability goals. Kay emphasized that industry
