The National Director of Environmental Management coordinates national meetings which all NFPs must attend and present their work. During these meetings the work of each convention is discussed, allowing NFPs and other ministry staff to provide input and stay up-to-date on the activities of each convention. In addition to these regular meetings, the Ministry of Environmental Affairs established a Biodiversity Unit (BU) to ensure the involvement of all relevant government ministries and stakeholders in the implementation of the country's NBSAP, including NFPs of the Biodiversity-related Conventions. Participation is optional since no funding is available to members but snacks are provided during meetings of the BU to encourage participation.
