Dear all,

I am thrilled to be joining this group, thank you Evin for adding me to the list. I am also very much looking to the meeting later today.

Following Daniel’s prompt I’m sharing a draft capacity building strategy I have been working on over the holidays to make sure you get a chance to look at it before our meeting today:

You should be able to edit and comment directly on the file.

Please kindly consider this a discussion paper – I realize we have different community groups working on similar topics, it was my understanding we are trying to bring them all under one hat, making sure we all speak the same language and targetting the same issues at and around the Kobe meeting.  

For the purpose of making the discussion effective, I’ve added also those who indicated their willingness to work with me on the draft (apologies for crossposting) and heads of outreach and policy groups. Apologies if I might have missed anyone. Please be sure to share the draft with all you feel might be able to contribute. Thanks!

Joanna Kulesza

P.S. Thanks Daniel for all your help!
