To build/strengthen capacity and knowledge management systems for subsequent assessment and reporting, including impact indicators. performance review & assessment of implementation system

  7. Role of the Reference Centres • 14 Regional and Sub-Regional Reference Centres jointly identified by UNCCD Secretariat and UNEP-WCMC in consultation with the GM and UNEP/DGEF as executing partners for the UNCCD PRAIS project at the regional level. • The RCs are specialized institutions in the sub-region/region with recognized mandate in SLM and a recognized experience of UNCCD implementation. • These centers are expected to continue to play a major role in the reporting process beyond the 2010 pilot exercise. They should have some mechanisms which retain and share institutional knowledge, including of the assessment and reporting process. • In cooperation with UNEP-WCMC, they will be responsible for the execution of the activities at regional level, providing front-line support for nore than140 eligible Affected Country Parties. As such, they will play a crucial role for the successful implementation of the project at regional and national level. performance review & assessment of implementation system
