Many multilateral environmental agreements (MEA) are a body to monitor the agreement. There are many more MEAs than this manual. In addition to global conventions such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), there are agreements on specific themes such as the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species and certain regions, the Convention on the Protection of the Black Sea from Pollution. These are not overseen by UN bodies, but by specialized organizations created by the conventions. UNEP is assisting the Afghan National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock (MAIL) to implement multilateral and regional environmental agreements through training and technical assistance in the development of project proposals, legal harmonization and reporting.

These can be called The Conference of States Parties, Assembly of States Parties or a similar name. There may also be a secretariat to support the work of the governing body. McNeill, C.
