The School established a Recognition Committee following the Royal Commission’s public hearings, which met three times in 2016. The School implemented the major recommendation of the Recognition Committee by appointing a Survivor Liaison Coordinator, Renee Handsaker, to provide outreach and support to survivors of child sexual abuse at the School. Ms Handsaker has performed a vital role assisting survivors in a confidential and independent way. Her role is complimentary to, but separate of, the independent counsellor provided by the School to offer counselling and advice.

Meeting outcomes The meeting aimed to engage CEC’s leadership in working to contribute to the IUCN One Programme and in performing against the CEC mandate on strategic communication (CEPA) for the environmental Conventions, innovative learning for professional updating, and strategic dialogues to co-create solutions. Participants also considered knowledge management for IUCN as networking organization, with the vision of having one seamless and integrated way to share knowledge throughout the various programmes and Commissions and to share that information with a vast general audience.

  • Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) : a Toolkit for National Focal Points and NBSAP Coordinators
    Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) A Toolkit for National Focal Points and NBSAP Coordinators Frits Hesselink, Wendy Goldstein, Peter Paul van Kempen, Tommy Garnett and Jinie Dela Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) A toolkit for National Focal Points and NBSAP coordinators Frits Hesselink, Wendy Goldstein, Peter Paul van Kempen, Tommy Garnett and Jinie Dela PREFACE AND FOREWORDS Preface and Forewords PREFACE AND FOREWORDS PREFACE About this toolkit At the sixth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity the Programme of Work on article 13 Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) was adopted. One of the elements of the work program was to provide for capacity-building on CEPA for Parties to the Convention. During the eighth meeting of the Conference of the Parties (COP-8) in Curitiba, Brazil in 2006, Parties adopted a priority list of activities. One of these was the development of a toolkit to facilitate this capacity- building and to provide support for the organization of regional training workshops. The workshops have, as a goal the integration of the tools and methodologies of CEPA into the development, implementation and revision of National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs). To accomplish this integration, the Secretariat of the Convention on Biological Diversity asked IUCN to develop a CEPA toolkit for these NBSAP training workshops for use by focal points to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD). This toolkit is meant to be used by CBD focal points and those to whom the implementation of a NBSAP is delegated at the national level.
