This framework should be developed and refined with the early involvement of a number of participating countries. 2. Evidence and lessons learned from this framework should inform the proposed readiness and preparatory activities of the Green Climate Fund. This should be explored with the GCF Secretariat. 3. A work-plan should be developed that would include: (i) how to engage with other relevant initiatives: e.g. the Effective Institutions Platform and regional bodies , e.g. the System for Integration of Central America; and (ii) develop outreach and communication strategies in different languages .

There is scope to replicate the successful Honduran model for regional dialogues on public climate change finance that include cross-continental experiences. 5. Use this framework at Global Forums, such as the present meeting, to promote dialogue and lesson learning across regions on the use of country system to manage public climate change finance.
