Cooperation with World Business Council for Sustainable Development signed The EPLCA has the overall objective to support good practice in LCA, by facilitating the development through international coordination of a series of technical guidance documents on life cycle inventory (LCI) and impact assessment (LCIA) ; hence improving the availability of qualityassured and consistent LCI and LCIA data and methods. Supporting this, a Memorandum of Understanding has been signed between the European Commission’s JRC and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.

European Platform on LCA - Upcoming

• The enhanced ELCD core database of over 300 LCI data sets of European scope will be uploaded to the EPLCA website by mid April. The data can be used free of charge. • The advanced draft deliverables of the work towards a technical guidance on recommended LCA practice ("ILCD handbook") are expected within the next months. This work integrates the extensive input of the invited consultation of 2008 on the first draft, received from globally over 20 governmental bodies, international organisations, and research and consultancy organisations. • A series of ILCD technical stakeholder workshops and other stakeholder meetings are planned for May/June this year (dates and tentative agenda will be provided in the next newsletter).
