About This Event

 

The German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) commissioned the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the consortium partners to further develop the programme “Solutions for Marine and Coastal Resilience in the Coral Triangle” based on a concept note handed in in October 2017. For this programme, the consortium aims to operate within the framework of the Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries, and Food Security (CTI-CFF) and cooperate closely with the Regional Secretariat and the partners in the respective countries. 

 

Objectives

  • To clarify outstanding issues from in-country dialogues on the opportunity, as relevant to the seascapes.
  • To identify and agree on seascape-specific opportunities for increased collaboration on existing projects and new projects for accelerated achievement towards the impact intended in the opportunity for the entire CT region.
  • To co-create an improved program logic framework with outcomes and outputs that are clear contributions to the regional CTI agenda.
  • Select participants only: To agree on outstanding matters related to the consortium program management.

Provisional Agenda

Please note that the workshop for each seascape will take 3 half days. To support people participating in different time zones, all seascape workshops will start during a local afternoon. Final agendas will be prepared specific to the seascape soon.

Venue

Microsoft Teams will be used as a communication platform to conduct the virtual workshops. Meetings in MS Teams include audio, video and screen sharing. Each participant will connect to the workshop individually via a link, sent by the consortium to the provided email address. This link will allow the participant to join the meeting on a web browser instantly without downloading Teams or any plug-in. We will prepare guidance for the meeting conduct and the use of MS Teams before and at the start of the workshop. As this is new to many of us – including a large part of the organisers things may not always be perfect – however kindly bear with us and I am sure we can make this into a success.
