DICIDA-UK is the Development Initiative for Chemical Industry Dependent Areas in the UK
The aims of DICIDA-UK are to:
(a) Ensure that national government and European Union policies and programmes assist the continued growth of the chemical industry in and across the Member States; and
(b) Enable local regions to cope with the economic, social and environmental problems created by the restructuring of the chemicals industry.
The DICIDA-UK network provides a forum where all Local Authorities and public sector agencies in areas with a concentration of employment in the chemicals industry can join forces to secure a safe future for their communities. To find out how to become involved in the network, contact Lynne Brear at the Tees Valley Joint Strategy Unit.
A European network of Regions that have high levels of employment in the chemical industry has been formed based on the experiences of the DICIDA-UK Network. Details about the European Chemical Regions Network (ECRN) can be found on the Partner Details page of the DICIDA site.
