Challenges and lessons learnt • Poor intersectoral coordination at all stages of the GEF project implementation. • Need to improve intersectoral coordination and information access of all involved stakeholders • No national focal points are appointed for all environmental conventions • Need to appoint national focal points for each signed/ratified convention • No operational mechanism for initiation and utilization of co-financed resources • Need to establish clear mechanism for initiation and utilization
Addressing the challenges Within UNDP Project “Strengthening of Environmental Management for SD” • Established an intersectoral working Group under the GEF OFP • Endorsed the rules and procedures of GEF project initiation and implementation in Kazakhstan based on GEF rules • Focal Points for all environmental Conventions are appointed in the MEP • Enabled information access through workshops and translation of the GEF information
