Objectives

The GSCP has also started organising ad-hoc meetings, often held in correlation with a Board Meeting.
These meetings offer the opportunity for business and non-business stakeholders to gain a better understanding of the Programme’s objectives as well as share their expectations and concerns on the GSCP’s current work and next steps.

The aim is:

• to involve the stakeholders in discussions on current and planned activities.
• to gather stakeholders’ objective recommendations to integrate into the GSCP Working Plan and improve the efficiency of outcomes for the Expert Working Groups
• to enable a flow of ideas between stakeholders, businesses and the programme
