dc.descriptionIn low- and middle-income countries, Highly Hazardous Pesticides (HHPs) may often pose unacceptable risks to humans and the environment. In order to reduce these risks, a project implemented by FAO funded by the “Strategic Approach to International Chemicals Management” (SAICM) under the Quick Start Programme enabled the development of a cost-effective yet comprehensive methodology to identify Highly Hazardous Pesticides in Mozambique; and to assess their risk to human health and the environment based on the extent and nature of their use. The method is presented here from identification to HHPs regulation. The work conducted with the National Directorate of the Agrarian Services of the Ministry of Agriculture contributed to Mozambique taking important regulatory measures by cancelling the registration of an important number of HHPs, thereby protecting people and the ecosystems.
