Cooperation with other International/Regional
Programmes
► Scientific cooperation with CLRTAP EMEP, WMO were
strengthened in the past years.
► New partnerships were explored, such as UNEP-WHO
Regional Forum on Environment and Health.
► Collaborative activities conducted with IIASA in the Model
Inter-Comparison Study in Asia (MICS-Asia) project.
► A joint Workshop with TF HTAP was held back to back

Emission inventories should be promoted to support
modeling activities and for improving environmental
management.
Models are a cost-effective way to supplement data gaps by
interpolation, extrapolation of observations in space and time;
test current theories & explore hypothetical control scenarios.
