Global Mountain Forum (GMF) – Bridging Phase

Projekt abgeschlossen

SDC has a long history of supporting sustainable mountain development (SMD) efforts at different levels including the global policy level. Ever since, SDC has promoted policy dialogue and cooperation among different actors in order to promote SMD from global to regional, national, and local levels. Through the new institutional embedment of the mountain portfolio in the GPCC due to the internal shift of the responsibilities, a Bridging Phase is submitted to secure a continued support to key strategic partners linked to SMD during the reorientation process of the SMD portfolio.
