The main objective of the Thematic workshop on KIP preparation is an orientation and capacity building for National Ozone Officers (NOO) and national experts from the Africa Francophone region. The workshop will provide national Refrigeration and Air Conditioning (RAC) experts an opportunity for training, exchange of expertise, information sharing, capacity building to collect data, utilize OzonAction tools, and design Kigali HFC Implementation Plans (KIPs) projects in the Region.

The purpose of this training is to build the capacity of the National Ozone Unit (NOU) staff, provide them with the needed information, knowledge, skills, key techniques, and contacts to manage projects and ensure the effectiveness of their NOUs as well as their contribution to the fulfillment of their countries' obligations under the Montreal Protocol and its amendments.

The Network Meeting will be held from 8-9 May and 13 May 2023.

This meeting is organised by the UNEP OzonAction Compliance Assistance Programme in cooperation with the Pacific Island Countries' Network. It is part of the Regional Network service that OzonAction's  Compliance Assistance Programme (CAP) provides to Article 5 (developing) countries as part of its role as an Implementing Agency of the Multilateral Fund for the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol.

The meeting continues the series of ECA meetings for Montreal Protocol Officers and representatives of national RAC associations/sectors to enhance the cooperation between these key stakeholder groups and strengthen the RAC associations to support the HFC phase-down under the Kigali Amendment. There will be joint sessions with Montreal Protocol Officers and RAC Experts, and the latter will have the opportunity to learn about the latest developments in CO2 and ammonia technologies.
