RT null T1 GEF/UNEP Project: Integrated Stockholm Convention toolkit to improve the transmission of information under Articles 7 and 15 - Replication Strategy A1 United Nations Environment Programme, K1 persistent organic pollutant K1 data transmission K1 chemical YR 2022 FD 2022-10 LK https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/41657 UL https://wedocs.unep.org/handle/20.500.11822/41657 NO This replication strategy describes a GEF/UNEP project to disseminate and scale up an integrated electronic toolkit that strengthens Parties’ compliance with the Stockholm Convention by improving the transmission, accessibility, and use of data from National Implementation Plans (Article 7) and National Reports (Article 15). The project responds to barriers such as inconsistent reporting formats, weak national coordination, and limited resources by introducing a toolkit with four modules: NIP submission, POPs inventories, guidance, and data queries. Piloted in eight demonstration countries, the toolkit supports inventory data collection, report preparation, and information sharing, while incorporating gender considerations and ensuring long-term sustainability. Key actors include Parties, the BRS Secretariat, regional centers, UNEP, GEF, UNIDO, and UNDP. Scaling up requires global dissemination, training, translation into UN languages, and continuous maintenance to ensure lasting use.
