In 2009, the intergovernmental meeting, the "First Regional 3R Forum in Asia” was held in Japan. After this meeting, 20 Japanese NGOs working on 3R collaborated to hold the First Asia 3R Citizens Forum, attended by NGOs from China, Korea and Indonesia. The Forum addressed environmental concerns including improper waste management, overutilised disposal sites, and health problems resulting from inappropriate waste processing and recycling activities. <br><br>The Asia 3R Citizens Network was formally established in 2010 as the successful outcome of the First Citizens Forum in order to form a partnership with NGOs in Asia. The member organizations of Asia 3R Citizens Network have been working together for 3 years to achieve Sustainable Asia in partnership with a diverse range of stakeholders, and hold the Citizens Forum annually as a core network event.<br> <br><b>To register for the workshop in Hanoi, pls email to: <a href="mailto:vuong.loan@livelearn.org" target="_blank">vuong.loan@livelearn.org</a> </b><o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal>-- <br>Jane Stabb<br>Climate Change Project Officer<br>Live and Learn for Environment and Community<br>30, Ngo 32/26, To Ngoc Van street, Hanoi, Vietnam<br>Tel +844 3718 5930 Fax +844 3718 6494<br><br>e <a href="mailto:jane.stabb@livelearn.org" target="_blank">jane.stabb@livelearn.org</a><br>m +84 129 761 7103<br>s janestabb<br>w <a href="http://www.livelearn.org" target="_blank">www.livelearn.org</a><o:p></o:p></p></div></body></html>
