Resource Materials

This website provides a range of supporting documents and resources related to the proposed GFC implementation programmes (IPs) in support of meeting document UNEP/GFC/IC.1/6 and following consultation with the GFC Secretariat.  The IOMC hopes that this webpage will provide useful information for the participants at IC-1 in relation to the implementation programmes and looks forward to further discussions at that time.
