The Special Programme provides funding for institutional strengthening for the sound management of chemicals and waste.
Funding is provided to developing countries, taking into account the needs of least developed countries and small island developing states, and for countries with economies in transition.
The Executive Board approves funding applications. Approved projects usually have budgets of up to US$250,000 over 3 years, but it is possible, subject to additional appraisal criteria, to request up to $500,000. "
