With less than a month to go to GPSNR’s General Assembly (GA) 2020, the Secretariat has scheduled a two-part webinar series on 8 & 9 September 2020 that will take members through the proposed resolutions to be voted on at the upcoming GA as well as introduce the candidates for the Executive Committee elections. Members may use the links below to register for the pre-GA webinars.

​

The Secretariat has also published an Information Booklet for all GPSNR members, containing key details around the event, including proposed resolutions and a list of candidates running for the Executive Committee Elections. 

Voting will take place online from 10 – 22 September via a secure e-voting system. All Ordinary Members must complete the Voting Registration Form by designating a single representative to vote at the General Assembly. Login details will be sent to registered voters only.

Any members encountering issues with the mailer and registration links may reach out to the Secretariat (info@gpsnr.org) for assistance.

Capacity Building for Natural Rubber Smallholders

The regional sub-Groups of the Capacity Building Working Group continue to advance discussions on developing country-specific capacity building goals and strategies for Indonesia, Thailand, Côte d’Ivoire and Myanmar. 

The sub-Groups have made progress in identifying three issues of priority per country. Focusing on these issues, the sub-Groups have pinpointed the drivers or causes of these issues, as well as developed priority actions to address them. Having already established who the existing stakeholders conducting on-the-ground capacity building projects are, the next step is to approach identified local agencies to discuss possible collaboration and partnership. 

The Capacity Building Working Group is developing a budget estimate that would provide a more comprehensive overview of the resources involved in carrying out the planned capacity building initiatives.

The members of the Working Group recognize the importance of involving smallholders and government agencies in the process of developing these capacity building plans, and are working towards engaging these parties in the discussion.

Meanwhile, the Smallholders Representation Working Group continues to finetune the onboarding programme for smallholders prior to the General Assembly 2020. A sub-Group has also been formed to consider the issue of financial support for smallholder participation at subsequent General Assembly meetings.
