Several colleagues were surprised that I applied for the position of leading the biggest network working on climate change, especially at a time when there is no serious political will to do anything on climate change, yet an increasing number of organizations and institutions are reducing their resources to work on the issue.

Governments have little political will to increase their ambition to fight climate change, NGOs and donors have substantially reduced their resources directed towards the issue, the fossil fuel industry is still as strong as ever, and so on. To my friends, leading CAN at this time was not a smart career move, since the ability of networks such as CAN to achieve substantial impact on the issue is heavily criticized.

Nevertheless, the only thing that is certain in scientific reality is we also need to peak emissions very soon in an equitable manner, otherwise we put life on the planet at great risk. The next 10 years will determine the fate of our civilization. If we lose the fight, future generations will not blame this country or that government, they will blame our whole generation. The failure will be the failure of all of us. Therefore, despite all the existing difficulties and the advice of many, taking this new Wael Hmaidan position is part of my generational responsibility.

I fully believe that CAN, which is at the heart of the climate debate, is necessary to reach a successful solution to the climate disaster. Although we may be best known for mastering coordinating civil society work around international processes the art of coordinating and leading civil society policy work in relevant to climate change, especially the UNFCCC process. the UNFCCC, CAN is unique in many other ways. First, we are Secondly, CAN needs to complement this international work by the biggest and most widespread global network working on coordinating campaign opportunities among its members on climate change. Second, we have national and regional networks national and regional levels. Thirdly, CAN will upgrade its role that work in virtually every corner of the planet. Third, we have as civil society convener, by becoming the builder of a more gained valuable skills in terms of civil society coordination holistic climate movement on the international, regional, and and network development that are rare elsewhere. Fourth, the national levels within and outside the Network and reaching out diversity of CAN members is also unique, since it contains to other social and development movements. various types of civil society organizations (development, faith- based, environmental, grassroots, international, legal, think With these new key roles and the three-year strategic tanks, etc.) and has the widest possible spectrum of opinions plan, confidence in CAN is stronger than ever. Support and and positions on the different issues within the climate debate. commitment to CAN’s new directions have been coming from Finally, CAN members have a strong commitment to the every side (members, donors and other stakeholders) and the Network, are actively engaged in its work, and collaborate with Network has never been on more solid ground. one another in good faith.

The year 2012 has been a year of planning, and almost all climate networks and organizations, including CAN, have been thinking about what to do in the coming two to three years. It has been very interesting to explore the thinking of individuals and organizations from both inside and outside the Network throughout the year. At the strategic planning retreat in Wael Hmaidan Bangkok, we developed new directions and achieved important Director breakthroughs. This work has identified three key roles for CAN-International CAN. Firstly, CAN needs to continue doing what it does best:

Capacity Building Program has identified human resources, Message from in the form of LDP Fellows, that add capacity to regional node secretariats in developing countries and will ensure dedicated the Board Co-Chairs contribution from these nodes. With increased capacity and regular successes, CAN members have increased expectations from the Network. This demonstrates the increased trust of our The year 2012 was eventful for CAN. The CAN Board of Directors members and supporters and we are hopeful that the 2013 prioritized assisting the new leadership in the Secretariat while Board will continue to turn new challenges into opportunities. maintaining the sustainability on substantive and financial aspects of the Network. The Board hired Wael Hmaidan as the new CAN Director and facilitated CAN’s activities by providing support on program and fundraising activities. It was heartening to see Wael taking over the responsibility with ease and demonstrated new thinking on regional node engagement in order to scale up our advocacy activities as the new phase of CAN policy work. The CAN Charter, our Network’s bylaws, was updated through regular consultations with regional nodes to ensure that we, as a global network, can manage complex issues related to governance through transparency and accountability. With existing deadlock on international climate negotiations, the Board supported prioritizing advocacy work at the country- level by working with likeminded stakeholders. To materialize the thinking, the Board actively participated in designing the CAN Strategy for 2013–2015 that focuses on issues pertaining Sanjay Vashist & Steven Guilbeault to sustainable development with climate aspects to be Board of Directors Co-Chairs, 2012 integrated in long run.

CAN Brand Renewal The Network moved to strengthen its global presence and harmonize its regional networks by updating CAN’s branding and logo. Initially developed by CAN Europe, but now in place across all of CAN’s communications channels, the new logo is a modern and fresh visual identity for the Network. The new branding reflects CAN’s values and work. The blue element of the logo reflects the climate or atmosphere, while the green circular movement stands for action. The two colors are encased in the shape of the globe, which represents the nature of the Network. The new logo can act as a tool, which will bring the CAN nodes closer together through a united visual identity. As such, CAN is encouraging regional nodes to adopt the logo to increase the effectiveness of the Network’s visual presence globally. In the coming year, CAN will be supporting regional nodes to make the transition to the new branding.

Fossil of the Day CAN presented its Fossil of the Day awards at the Bonn, Bangkok and Doha climate negotiations. CAN members vote daily to present these sarcastic awards to countries judged to have done their “best” to block progress in the negotiations in the last days of talks. In addition, the newer tradition of awarding scarce “Rays of the Day” to highlight especially laudatory actions continued this year as well. The 2012 ceremonies in Doha were lead by members of IndyACT and concluded with the tradition of awarding the 2012 Colossal Fossil of the Year, presented to both New Zealand and Canada, for performing the most poorly at the Doha climate negotiations.

Media Engagement CAN held press conferences in Bonn, Bangkok and Doha, which attracted reporters from major international wire services as well as local, national, and regional outlets. At the Doha COP 18, CAN held nine press conferences and was able to harness heightened interest from media for comment from CAN’s Director, as the major climate negotiations for the year were

This past year saw changes to the way civil society interacts with the climate negotiations, both formally and informally. Some progress was made in allowing for greater flexibility to give formal interventions at the negotiations, the ability to gain access to Informal meetings, improving meeting logistics, increasing accessibility of NGO submissions, and ensuring NGO access to workshops and technical meetings. CAN Secretariat provided leadership in these negotiations with the UNFCCC Secretariat and the other constituency focal points.

Rio+20 — UN Conference on International Sustainable Development Climate Policy

General Coordination Services The CAN Secretariat brings together CAN members to develop policy positions and to coordinate strategic advocacy. This coordination service takes place through online channels and in-person meetings, often in conjunction with international or regional climate meetings. Last year, CAN continued hosting monthly conference calls for its policy working groups and weekly calls for the Political Coordination Group, a focused and representative group of actively engaged CAN members. Information sharing and strategic discussions also took place over CAN’s 20+ email lists. The CAN Secretariat solicited updates from all thematic working groups and regional networks to compile the quarterly CAN newsletter. This newsletter is distributed to members prior CAN campaigned to ensure that climate change-related to international climate negotiation sessions and highlights issues were mainstream in the Rio+20 conference and the policy developments, opportunities for progress and strategic processes that emerged from that summit.

AWG-ADP: Opening plenary | Delivered by Rontai (Marvin) Nala, GCCA Photo Credit: Carlos Rittl can-international annual report 2012 | 15 One key post-Rio process that CAN focused its work on in 2012 was the process to formulate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which need to be agreed in 2015. These SDGs should be combined with the new Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) after the current MDGs reach their expiry in 2015. Both the post-2015 MDGs and SDGs will become the guiding beacon for the UN development agenda. The first MDGs process failed to incorporate climate change, therefore, CAN has put sincere efforts to ensure that climate change is a focus on the development of the new goals for post-2015. This is being accomplished through bringing together both the environmental and developmental movements. Environmental and developmental movements are tightly linked and must work more closely together, as the world will not be able to eliminate poverty if climate change continues to increasingly impact poor communities. Following the Rio+20 Summit, CAN partnered with Beyond 2015, a coalition of primarily development NGOs, to assist in the creation of joint position papers to be submitted on the Environmental Sustainability and Energy Thematic Consultations to the United Nations. CAN is also co-organizing a conference on the post-2015 developmental agenda that will take place in early 2013 with other environmental and development networks, including: GCCA, CIVICUS, Beyond 2015 and GCAP. CAN was also designated as a lead civil society organizations in the Steering Group Committee for the Environmental Sustainability Thematic Consultation to the UN on the SDGs. The main aspect of this position has been to ensure that civil society organizations have adequate voice and participation in the process. The 2015 deadlines present a challenge for both the UNFCCC and the post- 2015 MDGs/SDGs processes. The year 2015 is the end of the current MDGs and the UNFCCC deadline to create a 2015 global climate deal. CAN will work to ensure that civil society inputs into the two key summits in 2015 are coordinated and the outcomes are synergistic — magnifying positive Bringing Southern and Northern climate change action, and broader social goals. voices together in action on United Nations Climate Negotiations climate change is to me the Bonn key value of CAN.

Among them were CARE Denmark, Denmark delegates from: Slovakia, Korea, Lebanon, Ecuador, South Africa, Thailand, Botswana, a UN officer from Geneva, business NGOs and non-CAN civil society organizations and others. CAN gave presentations at all four of the workshops held as an official part of the negotiations and delivered 10 interventions.

16 |www.climatenetwork.org Bangkok At this second intersessional preceding COP18 in Doha, CAN focused on avoiding a catastrophe in Doha. All of the KP and LCA negotiations were coming to a close at the end of 2012 and a new workplan with little to nothing had been planned. CAN was able to work effectively by producing its daily ECO and delivering interventions. Although time was limited and so only five interventions were delivered.

Doha At COP18 in Doha, Qatar, CAN’s presence was prolific around the negotiations, where CAN pushed for the most fair and equitable outcome possible. With the closing of the first Kyoto Protocol period and the LCA, CAN advocated for a second commitment period, successful closure and transfer of all things LCA, and an ADP workplan to help result in 2015 legally binding agreement. Several highlights that the CAN Secretariat led, included:

++ Hosting two in-person strategy sessions to prepare and strategize through the Doha negotiations. The sessions focused on political stocktaking and intelligence sharing, joint strategy development through the negotiations and beyond, and pursuing a collective lobbying strategy.

++ Fifteen CAN Interventions were delivered, nine of which were given by CAN members from the south. CAN was able to give all seven opening plenary interventions, six snap interventions and two closing plenary interventions.

++ CAN participated in the special ADP session held to facilitate observer organizations to provide their input, making more interventions than any other civil society organization.

++ CAN coordinated and participated in over 20 bilateral meetings including the Qatari Presidency, Christiana Figueres, IPCC, FAO, as well as country groups such as LDCs, AOSIS, Africa Group, US, Canada, Australia and the EU.

For COP18, CAN worked with IndyACT, its member in the region, as well as Naoyuki Yamagishi the Global Campaign for Climate Action (GCCA), to develop a strategy that aimed to achieve the best possible outcome of COP18: making a shift in WWF, Japan the way the region works on climate change and pushing Qatar to become more progressive.

The objective of this consortium is to help ensure that the needs, rights and perspectives of civil society organizations and people vulnerable to climate change are adequately advocated for and reflected in a fair, ambitious and binding climate agreement for the period after 2012. This agreement must be adopted by the international community, as well as in the development and implementation of climate change policies at national, regional and international levels. CAN worked with regional networks in South Asia and West Africa to increase their institutional and advocacy capacity, as well as raise general public awareness of climate change policies and programs in their regions. The second phase of this program is underway for 2013, where two additional networks, Latin America and the Pacific, will join.

can-international annual report 2012 | 37 The Climate Action Network (CAN) is a worldwide network of over 850 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in more than 90 countries, working to promote government and individual action to limit human-induced climate change to ecologically sustainable levels.

CAN members work to achieve this goal through information exchange and the coordinated development of NGO strategy on international, regional, and national climate issues. CAN has regional network hubs that coordinate these efforts around the world.

CAN members place a high priority on both a healthy environment and development that “meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (Brundtland Commission). CAN’s vision is to protect the atmosphere while allowing for sustainable and equitable development worldwide.
