| Short description: |
Priority activities of the UNEP mercury programme, established in response to UNEP Governing Council, have been to raise awareness of the nature of mercury pollution problems, through regional awareness-raising workshops and assisting countries to identify, understand and implement actions to mitigate any mercury problems in their countries; to develop guidance materials and toolkits; to develop a clearinghouse for mercury-related information, with relevant information distributed via internet as well as other media; and to support Governments and other stakeholders to develop and implement partnerships, in a clear, transparent and accountable manner.
