A key area of engagement is the conduct of training programmes under the HCFC Phase-out Management Plan (HPMP) in collaboration with the Ozone Cell, Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Government of India, supported under the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). These programmes focus on strengthening the capacities of officers in areas such as environmental compliance, regulation of ozone-depleting substances, and enforcement related to international environmental commitments.

The Capacity Building Programme on “Leadership for Sustainable Systems (LSS)”, conducted at NACIN Palasamudram from 02–06 June 2025, brought together 20 officers across seniority levels for an immersive exploration of systems-oriented and mindful leadership.

Inaugurated by Dr. M. Subramanyam, Principal Director General NACIN, with opening remarks by Aarti Saxena, Additional Director General, NACIN, the programme moved beyond conventional pedagogy—integrating theatre-based learning, systems mapping, and insights from Indian knowledge traditions.
