You are invited to attend this side event to learn more about the “Friends of PoWPA” partnership and the factors of success: commitment, capital, coordination, communication, communication, collaboration and capacity, and to share your thoughts on how this can be scaled up to help achieve the Aichi Targets of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020.
