Learning topicsThe learning needs survey for the Cop launched in 2010 resulted in a set of resource briefs and priority topics of choice which were recently validated by the IW:LEARN Steering Committee.
These topics of conversation will be led by experts in the respective fields but, to fully deploy their potential for learning, participation and exchange are still looked forward to.
Learning eventsTargeted regional workshops allowed for the discussions to start and for the participants to identify lessons learned and challenges to tackle with project twinnings or CoP support.
To open up the debate, an electronic forum is proposed to be held throughout 2013. The discussions will focus on one topic per month to address the various interests by projects.

A network of learning champions
A catalytic coalition among GEF IW projects to promote learning that meets project-level priorities
Designed to be responsive to the learning needs of the GEF IW projects and to strengthen the influence of learning on GEF IW project planning and activities.
A clearing house for emergent results (e.g. case studies, reports) that can influence the practice or science of transboundary surface freshwater management.
A repository of learning resources
An opportunity to apply learning in practice for improved project delivery
A programme of learning events
A programme of learning events and facilitated knowledge exchange will be developed to promote application of the CoP’s learning resources to problem solving, planning and strategy formulation, and implementation.
