This report summarizes a regional workshop for Europe, Africa and Asia introducing the Stockholm Convention Integrated Electronic Toolkit, a web-based platform developed to assist Parties in preparing, updating and submitting their National Implementation Plans (NIPs) in line with their obligations under Article 7 of the Convention.
Through a live demonstration, participants explored key functions, including user access, POPs inventory data entry, action plan development and Article 15–aligned reporting tables. Discussions focused on practical issues such as access for national consultants, offline and downloadable options, integration with Word/PDF workflows and data entry requirements.
The workshop was held under the GEF-funded, UNEP-led Global Development, Review and Update of NIPs under the Stockholm Convention on POPs project. The Green Growth Knowledge Partnership (GGKP), implementing Component 4, is supporting knowledge dissemination and coordination with the Secretariat to ensure Parties have access to integrated, user-friendly tools.
