This workshop was originally intended to launch national activities to be performed for the POPs data collection/ revision process needed to facilitate the pilot testing of the Integrated SC Reporting Toolkit being developed under the GEF-funded project Integrated SC Toolkit to improve the transmission of information under Articles 07 and 15 (GEF ID 9884). The workshop’s objective had to be modified as the POPs data collection process had been recently (2018) completed under another GEF-funded regional project and as such, there was little to no need for the involvement of stakeholders outside the Department of Sustainable Development (DSD), focal agency of the Stockholm.
