The UNEP OzonAction Knowledge Maps tool was developed to provide, the National Ozone Units (NoUs) and different UNEP’s partners, with a simple tool to help them access data and information about relevant stakeholders, who are mainly involved in the implementation of programmes and projects under the Montreal Protocol (MP) supported by Multilateral Fund (MLF).
Currently, the first two available knowledge maps are listed below:
Refrigeration, Air-Conditioning, and Heat Pumps (RACHP) Associations & Organizations: This Knowledge Map provides a global directory of RACHP associations, societies, and organisations around the world. These are the key stakeholders for ensuring safe and efficient refrigerant transitions, for the training of technicians and supporting the national policies related to the Montreal Protocol.
Local Technical & Vocational Education and Training (TVET): This Knowledge Map provides a global directory of TVET entities and centres around the world. These are the strategic partners for conducting and promoting training and certification programmes related to the refrigeration servicing sector.
To develop this tool, UNEP OzonAction collected and reviewed different datasets from multiple sources, and then presented the collected datasets into a common platform and format (mainly in the form of a global map so that data can be geographically displayed). Kindly note that the data and information provided will be updated regularly through the feedback that will be received from NOUs and partners to update and/or add new records. Other maps are currently under development which will include access to other key data and information of importance to the implementation of Montreal Protocol programmes.
