Background

Since April 2020, the Paris Committee on Capacity-building (PCCB) initiated the PCCB Network as a pivotal mechanism to fulfill its objective of disseminating capacity-building endeavors and initiatives among Network members, the PCCB, and other stakeholders, all aimed at advancing the implementation of the Paris Agreement.

Objective

The anniversary meeting aims to provide members with a platform to reflect on the sixth year alongside exploring potential events, upcoming activities, and future collaboration opportunities. The meeting, therefore, serves the purpose of further strengthening the Network by fostering discussions, partnerships, and open session meet up spaces.

Finally, the 7th annual meeting of the PCCB Network aims to foster networking and collaboration through a team building activity, which will be the main component of the event. It aims at fostering an exchange of ideas to facilitate new matches among participating members and enhance the collaboration component of the Network that needs to be further accelerated.

Unlocking Capacity Together: The PCCB Network Challenge

In this virtual escape room, participants will collaborate in groups to resolve three puzzles through collaboration, dialogue, and knowledge sharing. To solve the puzzles, participants will need to share about their work and solve capacity-building challenges, that will help meet new members and create potential partnerships or ideas. As groups unlock the puzzles, participants will make the PCCB Network reconnect knowledge, reveal hidden expertise, and activate new connections that can strengthen capacity-building efforts beyond this meeting.

In breakout groups. guided by five facilitators, this participatory exercise seeks to empower PCCB Network members to put in practice the connections identified.
