At the 93rd ExCom and in line with the request of the Government of Kenya submitted through UNEP as lead implementing agency, ExCom approved funds for the preparation of the KIP of Kenya. With the objective of establishing the basis for the preparation of the KIP, UNEP requires a consultant to guide the conducting of national HFCs surveys and preparation of the KIP project in Kenya UNEP’s Business Plan for the years of 2023-2025 (UNEP/OzL.Pro/ExCom/91/25) is endorsed by the ExCom-91.
