KEY CHALLENGES

• Alignment Because of the broad and inclusive
  nature of the Partnership, building consensus
  buy in can take time
• Preparation of the 2008 Harmonized Work Plan
  should be a great help in overcoming these
  challenges
• Human Resource Constraints In the Secretariat,
  SRNs and WGs, a lack of staff has hampered a
  number of activities
• The recruitment process for the Secretariat has
  been delayed in 2008, however it has accelerated
  since August, with all positions expected to be
  filled by years end.
• There is a need to expand full-time membership in
  Working Groups, especially the Harmonization
  Working Group, and establish permanent focal
  points and core members in SRNs
