Establishing a Civil Society Advisory Group and Accelerated Global Learning on Forests, Livelihoods and Climate Change Rationale 1. Urgent need to accelerate learning between all actors on REDD; 2. Value of ensuring regular input from independent, technical voices with global perspective; 3. Would help advance best practice, coherence, coordination between different REDD initiatives Recommendations of UN-REDD Programme 1. Establish Civil Society Advisory Group on Forests, Livelihoods and Climate Change (CSAG) 2. Sponsor events to accelerate learning • Precedents: – – 1. ITTO CSAG; World Bank EAG; CBD; 2. Oslo Conference on Forests, Rights and CC; Chatham House Discussions on Illegal Logging TORS and Principles of CSAG 1. Offer formal advice to the UN-REDD Policy Board – – (expand to FCPF and REDD Contact Group as invited) Advice not binding on UN-REDD (Policy Board or Secretariat) 2. Respond to ad hoc requests from UN-REDD Programme for technical assistance; 3. Design and organize meetings to accelerate learning (side events, conferences) in collaboration with UN-REDD • CSAG not seek funding from UN-REDD except to cover costs of at least one participant in Policy Board meetings Principles: • Don’t attempt to be fully “representative” (that is role of CSO and IP members of Policy Board) • Be completely transparent • Self-governed, flexible, nimble Status • Interim CSAG established at the Oslo conference on Forests, Rights and Climate Change • Will update governance structure at next meeting (aiming for 13 June) Proposed Responsibilities of UNREDD 1. Issue formal TORs to CSAG and invitation to address Policy Board; 2. Provide funds for at least one member per meeting; 3. Provide CSAG with meeting agendas, reports and documentation
