  1. Are we on the right path?What is missing? GEO BON Steering Committee Meeting UNEP-WCMC, Cambridge 20-21 July 2010

  2. Caveats Attempt to identify the big pieces and understand how they fit together To stimulate discussion Not internally consistent Not discussed with anyone

  3. Are we on the right path?What is missing? Answers: Yes, within +/- 30 degrees Thoughts on missing pieces follow…

  4. The Good • Strong concept • Implementation Plan completed • Loads of engaged talent • WGs, SC, GEO Sec, AP BON… • GEO, IPBES, CBD • Showcase opportunity • Some early products

  5. The Fair • Regional and Topical BONs • Just getting started (appropriate) • Exact relationship to other areas not clear • Country buy-in (not really addressed?)

  6. The Missing Still Needed Focal areas for the next phase Note: We are on track, following an appropriate implementation sequence.

  7. Resources • Time: of WG leads and members, SC, co-leads • Facilitating bodies • Is “volunteer” sufficient? • Funds • For implementing partners • For meetings • For WGs and other facilitators?

  8. Partnerships • Framework • GEO BON-level relationship with key partners? • WG-level relationships? • Both • Number and level of engagement • Need more • But okay at this stage

  9. Additional WG Guidance • Some WGs may not • Be sure just how to proceed • Feel fully empowered • Not exactly sure what is needed • Quickstart Guide? • Short paragraph on each of basic steps? • Clarification on empowerment?

  10. Role of Regional & Topical BONs • How do Regional BONs relate to: • WG activities? • Implementation Plan? • National governments? • Not clear how these are harmonized

  11. National Governments • Where do national goverments fit in? • Who should engage them? • GEO BON top level? • Regional BONs? • How? • When? • Do “National BONs” have a role?

  12. How Do the Pieces Fit Together? GEO BON (SC and co-leads) Working Groups Implementation partners GEO members Topical BONs Regional BONs National BONs (not discussed much)
