National levelo Focus on implementation
rather only planning: 1000s of CAPs, 100s of LAPAs developed but limited attention on implementation
o Identify agents for implementation: there are clearly spelled out goals, objectives and optimistic targets
Regional (South Asia) levelo Foster exchange of

priorities: Development agencies working in /supporting their own preferences
o Speed up the process: CC negotiation has taken lot of time
