4. Africa’s Participation In The Global Event
Given that the Global Forum is being held in Africa we think that it would be useful to use the December Conference as an opportunity for a briefing meeting between the South African Civil Society Secretariat – in its capacity as organiser of the Global Forum – and representatives from sub-regional focal points.
The meeting would deal with a number of issues, including a report on the logistics in Jhb; the attendance of African civil society delegates – how many are we planning for?; the possibility of sharing resources (eg the use the WSSD Secretariat website as a clearing house for information on the African process), and other items.
This meeting will have to be organized as a “parallel” process, and the agenda and preparation needed will have to be circulated in advance.
