The project achieved all its planned measures and advanced across the relevant Core Indicator Criteria. It strengthened the chemicals management framework by conducting comprehensive studies to identify cost-effective alternatives, developing the National Implementation Plan (NIP) for managing and phasing out emerging contaminants, and supporting the revision of lead regulations to meet international standards. The project enhanced national capacity through targeted training for border officials,
regulatory enforcement, and community sensitization, reaching key stakeholders and vulnerable groups. Additionally, it strengthened multistakeholder coordination mechanism by introducing a web-based platform for efficient communication and progress tracking. While the project achieved substantial outputs, a gap remains in the formal adoption process, particularly concerning the NIP.
