Thank you.
Italy, like many other countries, grapples with the management of industrial
activities regulated by the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). According to
data from 2018, Italy had approximately 6,470 industrial installations under the
IED, with the majority in sectors such as intensive rearing of poultry and pigs
(33%), waste management (20%), production and processing of metals (15%),
chemicals production (6%), and mineral production (6%).
Italy, like many countries, grapples with managing industrial activities under
the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). With around 6,470 installations,
sectors like poultry and pig rearing, waste management, metals, chemicals,
and minerals are significant contributors to environmental burdens, emitting
pollutants like SOx, NOx, heavy metals, and particulate matter. Challenges
include regulating major emitters like the ILVA steel mill in Taranto and
managing radioactive waste from past nuclear programs. Italy is committed to
international cooperation, adhering to regulatory frameworks like the IED and
IAEA Safety Standards. Stakeholder involvement, including citizens and NGOs,
is vital for transparency and accountability. Italy urges member states to
prioritize industrial waste management and radiation control for a sustainable
future. Thank you.
In Italy, as in many parts of the world, women and children often bear the brunt
of health disparities and inequalities. From maternal mortality rates to access
to reproductive healthcare, the challenges facing women and children are
multifaceted and require urgent attention.
Thank you.

Delegate of Italy
Italy would like to address the urgent need to focus on the specific health
issues adversely affecting women and children. Italy recognizes that women
and children often face unique health challenges that require targeted
interventions and comprehensive support systems.
First and foremost, maternal and child health must be prioritized to ensure the
well-being of future generations. Access to quality prenatal care, safe
childbirth practices, and postnatal support services are essential to reducing
maternal and infant mortality rates. Italy reaffirms its commitment to
promoting maternal and child health through investments in healthcare
infrastructure, education, and outreach programs.
