The current updated NIP has addressed the POPs listed up to 2015 (COP 6). In the action plan activities are also included to address the POPs listed in 2017 (COP 7).  The goals of the NIP are:  I. To set out the actions that Suriname has undertaken regarding the reduction of the presence of POPs;  II. To propose actions that Suriname will undertake to manage and eliminate POPs from entering the environment considering the Convention;  III. To inform the COP and Surinamese community about national initiatives and projects designed to meet the requirements of the SC.  The updated NIP describes how Suriname will fulfil its obligations under the SC to eliminate or reduce POPs-releases and carry out environmentally-sound management of stockpiles of POPs contaminated wastes and contaminated sites that pose high risks to human health and the environment, with a regional perspective
