  4. Setting up • Lessons Learned • No back up for computers including UPS, Generator • Power – cut • No opportunity for a dry run

  5. Training Program Program revised to give room for “hands on experience” for the two studies with case studies • Need to review the case studies thoroughly before the training as data keep changing • Complementarity of the team to handle raised questions • Unanticipated “crash” National Choice • Option I plus National Biosafety Web site • BCH seen as an obligation • Need to link BCH to data input and entry to facilitate science based decision making

  6. Photos from Training Room

  7. Training Program • Emphasise “national ownership” • Status of current nBCH & links with current choice • Role of BCH Focal Point critical • Involve stakeholders & principal decision makers (if possible) • Opportunities for “hands on”

  8. RECOMMENDATIONS • Presentation of current status of BCH – a good starting point • Prepare with back up material (software, touchlights etc) • Project Unit – updates case studies • Required materials – available to the countries • Post training mentoring • Need to link the BCH to national/international obligations & role in decision making
