National Working Groups (NWGs) are established at the discretion of the Inter-Ministry Co-ordinating Committee (IMCC) and organised in line with the requirements, focal areas, and activities of the Regional Working Groups (RWGs).
Role of the NWGs
NWGs are responsible for the design and implementation of management actions at national levels. More specifically, NWGs:
- Prepare, in close co-ordination with the respective NWGs in other participating countries, national activities with work plans to implement the NSAP for the respective RWG to consider and agree upon;
- Monitor and evaluate the progress of national activities and amend them, as necessary, in consultation with the RWG;
- Report to the IMCC through the NWG chairperson on the progress of the national activities;
- Report to the RWG through the NWG chairperson on the execution of national activities; and,
- Facilitate the execution at national level of activities identified by the RWG as appropriate to implement the regional SAP, in addition to those activities relevant to the implementation of the NSAP.
Membership
Each NWG consists of:
- A chairperson nominated by the GEF National Focal Agency (i.e., National Operational Focal Point [NFP]) and the GEF National Implementing Agency and appointed by the IMCC.
- Leading experts in relevant fields nominated by the IMCC and appointed by National Co-ordinators.
- Representatives from the private sector and NGOs.
The NC serves as the Secretariat of the NWG. Please refer to Architecture of the Interim YSLME Commission for more details.
