This course provides an introduction to the process of preparing, reviewing and updating NIPs.
The course aims to, among others, strengthen the capacity of Parties to implement and enforce relevant provisions and obligations under Article 7 of the Stockholm Convention with respect to:
- Preparing, reviewing and updating their NIPs and transmitting them to the COP in a timely manner;
- Undertaking POPs inventories through consultations with relevant stakeholders; and
- Integrating their NIPs into sustainable development strategies.
The course enhances knowledge and understanding of the Stockholm Convention, in particular with respect to POPs inventories, and helps learners identify and use available guidance, tools and technical assistance. With such knowledge and tools, learners are better equipped to undertake the preparation, review and updating of NIPs, thereby better protecting human health and the environment.
