Description: This workshop focused on building capacity among project partners and the foundation for work throughout the project. Although work developing the project outline began jointly in September 2023 with Youth for Arctic Nature (YAN), this workshop finalized the Partnership Agreement such as roles and responsibilities based on the agreed milestones, deliverables, communication plan, financial management, and reporting for the CAP-SHARE project. The workshops also discussed capacity sharing in stakeholder involvement and knowledge exchange along with ethical practices. We outlined strategies to help support stakeholder involvement, making sure that vulnerable groups are heard. Furthermore, strategies in recruiting people who are not often active in community development projects were introduced, for example, working with youth.

Agenda:

• What is CAP-SHARE
