Dear Agnes and Kati,
thank you for all the planning work already done.
If I understand correctly, on the third day there is an half-hour slot
(11:30 to 12:00) foreseen for a presentation on the integration of ILK,
without saying who will give this presentation. If this is still open I
could volunteer to give such as presentation, as I have done in others
PESC meetings already (and because I followed this topic in detail
during IPBES 5 as responsable member of the German delegation). This is
just an offer. If you have someone else in mind already this is of
course also perfectly fine. Just let me know.....
best from Regensburg

>> national platforms or other forms of national/regional
>> coordination) and then later break-out groups for Chapters 5-6 in
>> parallel with one that addresses the next IPBES work program.
>> Otherwise, participants that have not prepared for reviewing a
>> chapter might be a little lost during the afternoon of day 1 and 2?
>>
>> Regarding the organization of the review: One lesson that I

>> still exists? Or to identify some key aspects they should
>> concentrate on? Or to give them some more instructions such that

>> this is required by the TSU)? Maybe, the participants will ignore
>> this information but maybe it's worth a try? And, of course, as
>> you know, the accessibility of the documents was really an issue
>> before PESC-3.
>>
>> Regarding the stakeholder engagement and the discussion of
