Country situation report on POPs in Burundi.

This report evaluates the general situation of POPs in Burundi, including sources and uses of POPs. In addition, PES conducted six training and awareness workshops for farmers, manufacturers, importers, government officials and NGOs. The workshops covered the content of the Stockholm Convention, chemical management and risks in Burundi, chemicals legislation, and information network on chemicals. The workshops yielded recommendations-including the need for greater public awareness-implemented chemicals legislation, stricter controls on imports, and setting up a sub-regional network on POPs.
