South-South Cooperation is a relatively new UNEP initiative that is being promoted as an essential cross-cutting mechanism designed to enhance UNEP’s ability to deliver capacity building and technology support activities in the field of environment in developing countries and regions of the South.

The implementation of the South-South Cooperation initiative is being carried out in the context of the Bali Strategic Plan for Technology Support and Capacity Building (BSP). The BSP serves as an umbrella framework for “coherent, coordinated and effective delivery of environmental capacity-building and technical support activities” in response to well defined country priorities and needs.
