The implementation plan looks to member States, as well as to development partners, United Nations agencies, faith-based groups, non-governmental organizations, local authorities and communities, businesses, the financial sector and young people to deliver on this vision. UNEP itself will contribute to the implementation plan through its programme of work and by enhancing impact through coordination of ongoing efforts globally and catalysing action through partnerships.The implementation plan (a) takes forward pollution-related Environment Assembly outcomes, (b) proposes action areas with opportunities and solutions to address capacity gaps and challenges, and (c) contributes to implementing the SDGs by accelerating progress towards the targets through preventing and combating pollution. It promotes the wider sharing of the good experience/knowledge that already exists for acting on pollution. It includes preventive and remedial aspects, for both the near and longer terms, and is both normative and operational. It builds on existing UNEP work and initiatives and focuses on the challenges that are common to the air, water, land/soil, marine and coastal, and chemicals and waste dimensions of pollution.
