Initial Assistance to Niue to Meet its Obligations under the Stockholm Convention on POPs.

The objective of the project is to create sustainable capacity and ownership in Niue to meet their obligations under the Stockholm Convention, including initial preparation of a POPs Implementation Plan, and broader issues of chemicals safety and management as articulated in Chapter 19 of Agenda 21. The Implementation Plan describes how Niue will meet its obligations under the Convention to phase-out POPs sources and remediate POPs contaminated sites in Niue.
