Study commissioned by the German government, through its Federal Environment Agency (⁠UBA⁠) with the aim to identify and describe the entities that may provide financial support to developing countries and countries with economies in transition, in order to address their challenges with the sound management of chemicals and waste. The overview of the 47 entities identified by the study provides a fairly complete picture in terms of which entities may support countries and for what activities: the topics that may be funded, in which countries and regions, who is eligible for the funding and in which way the funding is provided. Other aspects of the entities are less well documented and it may be worthwhile to consider a follow-up phase in order to expand the number of possible funding sources, review the methodology and improve the quality of information of the funding sources.
