Goals Global partners Regional hubs IPEP South Asia

Implementing project activities in the regions

IPEP regional coordination is being managed by eight NGOs working as Regional Hubs in five of the six UN languages (Arabic, English, French, Russian, and Spanish.) Each Hub is coordinating with other NGOs working on chemical safety issues within its country and at least four other countries within its region.

Regional Hubs are expected to match NGOs in the region to possible IPEP activities, and then work with identified NGOs to prepare a Project Activity Memorandum that describes an IPEP Activity that the NGO has an interest in working on, including well-identified outputs, indicators, deadlines, and a payment schedule.

IPEP Hubs are located at:
