ABOUT REGIONAL NETWORKS OF NATIONAL OZONE UNITS
The Regional Networks of National Ozone Units (NOUs) under the Multilateral Fund are a path-breaking mechanism for North-South and South-South cooperation, as intended in the Bali Strategic Plan.
Networking provides a platform for NOUs from Article 5 countries to exchange experiences, develop their skills and tap the expertise of their peers in both developing and developed countries. Conducted at the regional level, the Networking activity builds the Ozone Officers' skills for implementing and managing their national ODS phase-out activities.
Networking comprises:
- Annual and follow-up workshops
- Regular communication between UNEP and the Ozone Officers to provide information and assistance in resolving any difficulties encountered.
- Thematic and contact group meetings
- Country-to-country cooperation.
