Welcoming your intention to make Climate a whole of government priority, we would like to suggest that as part of the Climate Dialogue process you consider mirroring this by establishing a series major structured national stakeholder events, on the lines of the now annual National Economic Dialogue. It would be an opportunity for you to communicate the you are doing, but also to hear from the many stakeholders either taking action on Climate Change or trying to adapt to its consequences. The key part of this would be the bringing together of stakeholders in thematic workshop sessions to focus on Climate mitigation and adaptation under different themes and/or Ministries. These might be annual or 6 monthly.
