Communication and synergy between GIZ projects have been acknowledged as one of the key elements that contribute to the success of project implementation. This spirit brings FORCLIME (Forests and Climate Change Programme), PROPEAT (Peatland Management and Rehabilitation), SASCI (Sustainable Agricultural Supply Chains in Indonesia), and SASCI+ (Sustainability and Value-Added in Agricultural Supply Chains in Indonesia) together in the first internal joint conference that was held on 14-15th June 2021 in the Microsoft Teams, attended by more than 40 participants. The conference was opened with the general updates from the Principal Advisors of each project and continued with thematic topic presentations on HCV screening, community-based activities, natural resources management, Landscale assessment, and sharing session on project knowledge management.

“One of the added benefits of this conference in addition to the technical knowledge being shared, is that somehow we could get to know each other better and this may result in better informal communication across the projects.” said Per Rasmussen, the Principal Advisor of SASCI, during the closing statement of the conference.
