The initiative which is part of the African Caribbean Pacific Multilateral Environmental Agreements, Phase 2 (ACP MEAs 2) project is being funded by the European Commission and implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations via the European Environmental Bureau/Zero Mercury Working Group (EEB/ZMWG).
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the focal point for the Minamata Convention in Ghana and will be the lead agency for developing the National Action Plan.
Under the project, FoN will complement the country’s EPA’s efforts by providing connections on policy matters as well as on technical issues related to the reduction of mercury use in ASGM.
