Integrated Product Policy (IPP) is currently at the top of the environmental policy agenda. Aiming to improve the environmental performance of products and services along life-cycle, IPP combines integration, communication and co-operation as leading principles. IPP demands new paths for policy-forming and is an excellent example when discussing governance.The workshop stresses IPP governance models based on experiences made by scientific community and practitioners.
