The objective of the project is to create sustainable capacity and ownership in Latvia to meet its obligations under the Stockholm Convention, including preparation of a POPs National Implementation Plan. The National Implementation Plan describes how Latvia will meet its obligations under the Convention to phase-out POPs sources and remediate POPs contaminated sites. The project will enable Latvia to ratify the Stockholm Convention and become a Party to the same.
