Summary
Minutes from the Green Economy Coalition (GEC) Steering Group meeting on February 4, 2016, detailing the provisional 2016 plan, strategy for mainstreaming the green economy, and discussions regarding the organizational relationship and risk distribution between the GEC and the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED).
Key insights
- The GEC's strategy focuses on "Mainstreaming the green economy, and championing equity, inclusion and environmental limits in the economic transition" through three core activities: dialogue, knowledge platforms, and shared action across five policy areas: measurement, finance reform, sectors, people, and planet.
- The provisional 2016 plan includes launching seven country dialogues in India, the Caribbean, South Africa, Senegal, Uganda, Mongolia, and Peru, and establishing specific groups for Energy and Inequality.
- The GEC identified a funding target of £500,000 per annum to support its campaign and inequality work, noting that while European Commission (EC) funds can drive dialogues and knowledge platforms, other areas require additional funding and in-kind contributions from members.
- The Steering Group discussed refreshing the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) to address governance and risk, as IIED currently carries "most of GEC’s risk."
- The GEC is considering a multi-organisational operating model where different coalition partners lead on specific themes based on expertise—such as IIED leading on dialogues—to better distribute risk and funding responsibilities.
