Importance: High

 

Dear Partners and Observers,

 

We are pleased to circulate preliminary agendas of the forthcoming GBEP meetings, be held on 10-14 November 2014 at FAO Headquarters, Rome (Italy). Background documents of the meetings will be circulated in due time.

 

The meetings will be held with the following schedule:

 

-          10-11 November 2014 – Workshop “Introducing the AGLINK-COSIMO model for the measurement of Indicator 10”

This workshop is intended to introduce participants to the AGLINK-COSIMO model (developed by OECD and FAO) which is one of the partial equilibrium models that can be of use when investigating interactions of bioenergy with food security (Indicator 10, Tier III). This workshop, to be developed by  FAO colleagues of the COSIMO Team, would represent a practical capacity development event related to GBEP indicators. In order to have a manageable group of participants we propose to form a group of a maximum of 15 participants among the GBEP developing countries that might be interested in attending this workshop. Participants are kindly requested to bring their own laptops.

 

-          12-13 November 2014 – Working Group on Capacity Building for Sustainable Bioenergy (WGCB) and related Activity Groups

 

-          13 November 2014 (p.m.) - Roundtable discussion with private sector and SE4All to facilitate a strengthening cooperation. Ad hoc invitation of private sector and SE4All representatives will be sent for this Roundtable discussion.

 

-          14 November 2014 (am) – Steering Committee

 

Kindly respond with confirmation of attendance to GBEP meetings by 20 October 2014, specifying the session of your interest (as anticipated the number of seats for the Workshop on 10-11 November is limited to max. 15 participants). Please note that entry visas to the European Union (Schengen visa) may be required: kindly let us know if you need a letter of invitation for visa application as soon as possible. Please also find attached an information note to facilitate your stay in Rome.

 

We look forward to welcoming you all in Rome.

 

Kind regards,

 

Michela
