Capacity Building on Obsolete and POPs Pesticides in EECCA countries

In September 2009 GEF, FAO, Green Cross, IHPA and Milieukontakt International have started a new project.
The aim is to create a strong platform on the elimination of obsolete pesticides and POPs in 9 countries of Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia.

The final result will bring a greater awareness of the danger of obsolete pesticides and an increased capacity to manage, dispose of and prevent obsolete pesticides and POPs stockpiles. In addition, the project will bring about information exchange and cooperation between 9 participating countries, as well as stimulate a systematic involvement of a wide range of stakeholders.

Project period:
September 2009- December 2011

Participating Countries:
Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Macedonia, Moldova, Mongolia and Romania.
