  1. …making globalization work for all! Forest Stewardship Council: … its developing Strategy and Structure from a GAN Perspective Steve Waddell - PhD, MBA Chief Learning Steward & Founding Executive Director Global Action Network Net +1 (617) 482-3993 swaddell@gan-net.net

  2. Global Action Networks: Integrating Five Strategies Being trulyglobal and multi-level Implementing interdisciplinary action-learning and reflective action Building enduring yet nimble multi-stakeholder and cross sectoral, inter-organizational networks Generating systemic change through a range of non-violent, boundary-crossing and diversity-embracing activities Realizing the public good

  3. Several dozen GANs—and growing… • Building Partnerships for Development in Water and Sanitation • Climate Group • Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative • Fair Labor Association • Forest Stewardship Council • Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition • Global Compact • Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria • Global Knowledge Partnership • Global Reporting Initiative • Global Water Partnership • Global Partnership for the Prevention of Armed Conflict • International Centre for Trade and Sustainable Development • Marine Stewardship Council • Microcredit Summit Campaign • Social Accountability International • The Access Initiative (TAI)/ Partnership for Principle 10 • Transparency International • Youth Employment Systems

  4. Vision: a healthyGlobal World

  5. The Size of GANs A 2006 study of 17 GANs: • Staff: 25/18 • Annual budget: $9.9/$4.2 million

  6. Development Stages and Activities

  7. Question 1: “Membership” How can we be open and engaging? • System Citizens • Network Participants • Organization/partnership/network Decision-Makers • Organization/partnership/network Funders

  8. Question 1: “Membership” Formal Membership Formal Membership Participation Participation

  9. Question 2: Glocal How can we be Global and Local? • The Global Steward: • Interfacing with global actors • Connecting/synergizing the network • Addressing disparities • The Local Steward: • Testing • Implementing • Validating through real improvements

  10. Question 2: Glocal

  11. Question 3: Network How can WE have “peer-like” relationships given diverse “organizing logics” and resources? • GAN-Global • Simply a distinct set of responsibilities • Stakeholder Groups • Organizing around each groups’ core logic (market, geography, community) • Integrating diverse decision-making goals (profitability, order, justice) • Sub-Divisions • Organizing around core logic of issue (eco regions)

  12. Question 3: Network

  13. Question 4: Efficiency How can we maximize our resources’ impact? • Defining compelling “coherence” activities • Creating a solid “business” model • Allocating resources to best address (diverse) goals rather than power differences • Developing cost-appropriate decision-making processes

  14. Question 4: Efficiency

  15. Question 5: Movement How can we build engagement and support? • Shifting strategy -- and structure -- in response to new factors. • Building and maintaining trust and legitimacy. • Broadening leadership and participation.

  16. Question 5: Movement Business Govern- ment Government Civil Society Busi ness Civil Society
