Role of FAO, ITTO & other regional and national bodies in strengthening country capacity |
|||||||
• Promote N-S/S-S cooperation |
• |
• | ||||||
• Mobilize/leverage funding |
• |
• |
• |
• |
• | |||
• Facilitate partnerships with other sectors |
• |
|||||||
• Promote regional project activities including demonstration projects |
• |
• |
• |
• |
• | |||
• Undertake secretariat facilities |
• |
• |
||||||
• Involvement of countries outside any process |
• |
|||||||
• Organize meetings |
• |
|||||||
• Facilitate training/research |
• |
• |
||||||
• Promote awareness |
• |
|||||||
• Promote political commitment |
• |
• | ||||||
• Help capacity building |
• |
• |
• |
• |
||||
• Themselves use C&I in promoting SFM in member countries |
• |
|||||||
• Promote availability of information through implementing C&I |
• |
• |
• | |||||
• Provide links with other processes |

6. |
What other actions are needed to enhance adoption and implementation of C&I in countries? |
|||||||
• Find ways to use C&I in all forest-related activities |
• |
|||||||
• Reduce/simplify current C&I |
• |
|||||||
• More national/sub-national demonstration studies |
• |
|||||||
• Incorporate C&I in national forest policies |
• |
• |
• | |||||
• Involve policy makers more closely |
• |
|||||||
• Need for capacity building |
• |
• |
• | |||||
• Better co-ordination among processes |
• |

7. |
The role of an ad hoc global technical advisory group |
|||||||
• Share improved scientific knowledge |
• |
• |
• | |||||
• Achieve harmonization of objectives |
• | |||||||
• Increase information flow between processes |
• |
• | ||||||
• Useful |
• |
• |
• |
• |
• |
• |
• | |
But: |
||||||||
• Need some responsible body determine its tasks and priorities |
• |
|||||||
• Not high priority until all processors have considered it |
• |
• |
||||||
• As long as their recommendation can be made operational by processes |
• |
|||||||
• Should comprise experts and administrators from all processes |
• |
|||||||
• Based on experience gained in regions |
• |
|||||||
• Goals should be identified clearly |
• |
|||||||
• Composition should change with issues to be addressed |

Lessons other processes could learn from their experience |
||
• Commitment of countries to finance such a voluntary endeavour |
• |
||
• Cooperation with other regional and international institutions |
• |
• | |
• Free participation by stakeholder observers but ultimate responsibility to implement with signatories |
• |
||
• Having a technical advisory committee has been helpful to deal with and advise on issues that require in-depth work |
• | ||
• Having a liaison office/secretariat very useful |
• |
• | |
2. |
Ways the advanced processors can assist other to progress implementation |
||
• By exchange of experience, views and lessons learnt |
• |
• | |
• Inviting participation of other processes at meetings workshops, etc. |
• |
• | |
• Providing liaison office /secretariat facilities as feasible |
• | ||
• Link with development agencies to assist other countries and processes |
