Secretariat of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions

In 2012, the Secretariats of the Basel and Stockholm conventions, as well as the UNEP-part of the Rotterdam Convention Secretariat, moved from three separate secretariats with a programmatic structure to a single Secretariat with a matrix structure serving the three conventions. Since October 2014, Mr. Rolph Payet is serving as the Executive Secretary of the Basel, Rotterdam and Stockholm Conventions. The FAO-part of the Rotterdam Convention Secretariat is currently headed by the Executive Secretary, Mr. Bill Murray.
