Aligning Cross Cutting Initiatives to the CTI-CFF RPOA 2.0

Description:

To support the CTI-CFF RPOA 2.0 development process, a two-day workshop and a 1-day write shop were held to generate inputs and insights from CTI-CFF stakeholders on how to integrate CTI-CFF’s cross cutting initiatives into the RPOA 2.0 with a view to developing a roadmap for activities going forward.

The overall goals of the workshop were to give adequate consideration to the CTI-CFF cross cutting initiatives that engage three core constituencies and stakeholders, sustain and scale up initiatives, and provide specific opportunities for integration into CTI-CFF activities from 2020-2025.

The workshop had the following objectives:

  1. Review the key successes/milestones of the CTI-CFF cross cutting initiatives (LGN, WLF, RBF on Sustainable Tourism) from 2009-2018
  2. brainstorming sessions on how each cross cutting inititiative can contribute to CTI- CFF goals from 2020 onwards
  3. Develop a 5-year roadmap for the cross cutting initiatives (LGN, WLF, RBF on Sustainable Tourism) from 2020 onwards
  4. Explore the integration or alignment of the 5-year roadmap with CTI-CFF RPOA 2.0
  5. Discuss financial sustainability pathways to support the 5-year roadmap The writeshop will have the following outputs
  6. A written strategy/roadmap for CTI-CFF Cross Cutting Initiatives that will inform the RPOA 2.0, which can also be presented in the next CTI-CFF Senior Officials Meeting, and used for proposal.
