Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP-TIP)

The Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) project is a three-year project funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) as part of their International Climate Initiative (IKI) to establish low carbon production and consumption. Through an ambitious regional response to climate change under WWF Germany, the project aims to support the project partner countries’ (Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines or 'TIP') implementation and integration of SCP principles in politics, private businesses and civil society as a means for living up to their national climate strategies.

Aligned with the United Nations’ 10-year framework of programmes on sustainable consumption and production patterns (10YFP), the project will provide tailored assistance to varying country-specific thematic priorities in the pilot countries. Activities in Thailand focus on the agricultural and forestry sector in spurring mitigation strategies, with specific focus on the supply chain of maize and food production. Indonesia similarly looks towards the agricultural sector, but with emphasis on palm-oil production. In the Philippines, the project emphasizes on harnessing low emission strategies on the tourism sector within the food service industry.

                         About the SCP Project

The International Climate Initiatives (IKIs) to establish low carbon consumption and production in Thailand aims to stimulate and encourage the development and implementation of SCP concept within business models and governmental mitigation strategies, action plan and measures towards the development of environmental change solutions and sustainable communities. 

To help inspire and inform further change, the main components attributing towards the change in agriculture operation are to:

1) Promote the integration of SCP principles into governmental and corporate strategies and policies within agriculture and forestry sectors for climate mitigation solutions.

2) Encourage development and implementation of SCP principles within business models towards the promotion of sustainable food system.

3) Improve availability and accessibility to quality consumer information; resulting in increasing awareness on sustainable consumption and production.
