(b) Monitoring of progress in implementing regional and global programmes.

A global monitoring programme on POPspersistent organic pollutants (GMP) could be established to link together existing national, regional and global activities on monitoring and provide recommendations for the elements to be contained within such a global programme.

UNOSAT is a recognized partner of the European Commission and the European Space Agency on global undertakings such as the Global Monitoring for Security and Stability (GMOSS) programme and the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programmes.

Regional level activities could include regional monitoring and evaluation processes that would assist countries in setting up national monitoring systems and liaising with global mechanisms.

Further, the first global monitoring report will need to reflect the results of global data collection and the assessment of that data.

Similarly, the Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) is a joint initiative of the European Commission and ESA, designed to establish a European capacity for the provision and use of operational information for global monitoring of the environment and security.

These evaluations will be managed as part of the global Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation Framework (annex II)

So, once we discovered that it was really possible that we could actually do this monitoring, we decided to move this from research, to really attempt to phase up to a global monitoring effort.

As part of its efforts during the Water for Life Decade, UNEP will also strengthen the UNEP Global Environmental Monitoring System on Water as a global repository for water quality data.

To track global, regional and national progress, a wide ranging system of monitoring and reporting has also been put in place.

For the report of the meeting, see the World Meteorological Organization's Global Ozone Research and Monitoring Project Report No. 46 of March 2002.

Monitoring, assessment and reporting can be approached in a variety of ways ranging from national level voluntary mechanisms to more institutionalized global arrangements.

UNAIDS, in close collaboration with countries, will operationalize a Joint Monitoring and Evaluation Facility to ensure consistent global guidance on technical issues, development of monitoring and evaluation tools, and the timely and transparent flow of information to all partners.

(a) Option 1 the COP establishes an Evaluation Panel that receives national reports and non compliance information from the Secretariat and global monitoring information from a global coordinating group (GCG) as proposed in Annex II.

An early step was the convening of a workshop for experts to develop guidance on for a global monitoring programme for persistent organic pollutants.

In developing the global persistent organic pollutants monitoring programme, a number of general principles have been applied and the main ones are listed below

A strengthened UN Water is another option that could improve coordination among United Nations agencies, while liaising with other global coordinating and monitoring mechanisms.

(c) Assisting member and associate member States in the regular monitoring of environmental trends, the implementation of global environmental agreements and any reporting requirements

The draft resolution also reaffirms the role of the CTBT as a reliable global monitoring mechanism aimed at building confidence in the international community.
