CTI-CFF: Regional Secretariat and Strategic Partners hybrid meeting
The CTI-CFF Regional Secretariat (RS) and Strategic Partners Hybrid meeting took place in Sanur, Bali over 2.5 days from May 10 to 12, 2022. The objectives of the meeting were:
- Learn updates on the RPoA v2.0 and associated plans, and planning for the acceleration of activities towards RPoA2.0
- Review progress related to the three priority themes identified by the strategic partners (in 2021), and objectives developed at the USAID supported co-creation workshop (2022).
- Discuss next steps for accelerating progress in key priority areas for the CTI-CFF.
- Develop an agreed outline framework for moving forward that can be taken to the NCCs for further input.
The meeting was attended by 15 in-person participants and nine online participants from a range of strategic partner organizations. The meeting focused around the three Strategic Initiatives endorsed at the Senior Officials Meeting (SOM) in December 2021, with progress reviewed for each initiative.
- The Conservation Trust Fund has progressed, with a steering committee established, preliminary trust fund design underway and strategic planning around the target support areas of ‘Protect, Recover, Transform’.
- The Capacity Building RoadMap has progressed, with a CT-wide stock-take completed, and key RoadMap pillars and strategic activities identified.
- The International Policy Engagement initiative has identified key areas where analysis and further work is required.
The meeting resulted in agreed key action steps over the next 1.5 years, and calendar considerations moving forward, from now to the SOM-17 planned for November 2022.
