Greetings from AERF !!!
The Climate Investment Funds ( CIF) Partnership Forum will be held in November, 2012 in Istanbul, Turkey. The forum is the place for stakeholders - donor and eligible recipient countries, MDBs, UN and UN agencies, GEF, UNFCCC, the Adaptation Fund, bilateral development agencies ,NGOs, Indigenous Peoples, private sector entities, and scientific and technical experts - to share CIF-related ideas and experiences and engage in dialogue on the CIF’s strategic directions, results and impacts.
More information is available on http://www.climateinvestmentfunds.org/cif/Partnership_Forum
The Climate Investment Funds will financially support the participation of 24 Civil Society Observers (CSO) in addition to the current CSO observers. Applied Environmental Research Foundation, India (AERF, India) is a CSO observer for Forest Investment Programme of CIF. As a CSO we have been asked to nominate three candidate individuals/institutions from Asia-Pacific developing countries. The CSO committee will then select additional funded participants from the nominees based on a set of criteria that will include sub-regional/country balance (aim to include countries where CIFs are investing and avoid including participants from the same country as the observers), interest and familiarity with CIFs, issue balance (e.g. energy, forests, adaptation, etc.) and gender balance.
Pl. send your nominations in the format provided herewith to
[log in to unmask] not later than 23rd July 2012.
Thanks, we look forward to your positive response.
Dr. Archana Godbole , CSO For FIP , Asia -Pacific
