The meeting recognized the concerns about resource scarcity, growing pressure on feed resources, climate change and the need for more equitable development and recommended establishment of a multi-stakeholder platform to facilitate regional cooperation in pursuit of shared goals. It was further agreed that the process of creating such a community would involve identification of willing partners, agreeing on a common minimum age nda, putting in place an organizational structure, commitment of resources and a monitoring and accountability mechanism. This should be an open, voluntary and iterative process and such a coalition should be given time to evolve and establish credibility among stakeholders.
