Abstract

In this chapter, training and education for dissemination and implementation of cleaner prodution is discussed. Cleaner production calls upon new attitudes, new knowledge and new skills for all professions because environmental considerations have to be integrated in planning and development. There is a need for training programmes and for changes in university curricula. Experience from training in companies and training of officials from public authorities and from integration in engineering, business and management and social science curricula is discussed.
