Community-forming, this should start with the workshop participants, those invited who could not attend, and other people keen to participate.This ‘working out loud’ mechanism ( ** The Sandbox ** ) should allow individuals and organizations to collaborate in developing, piloting, testing, modifying and adapting a series of actions and activities directly related to the to be developed CCAFS strategy on 'communication and social learning for enhanced climate change decision-making.' || ** Completed ** More on the Sandbox || Ewen, Peter, Carl, Pete || August 2012 || See Julian project || Julian Gonsalves || December 2012 ||
 * **High profile current opinion piece on social learning**
 * Develop a synthesis glossy booklet about social learning (a 'social learning communication package')
 * Consider possible other comms options/formats in addition to the publication and blog post - ask the authors about what other formats they think might be useful || ** Completed **
 * (**early sandbox work**)
 * Bring this agenda into CCAFS - by making it a focus of discussion/learning; by having some of the key elements adopted as part of the ** CCAFS 'way of working' ** i.e. Planned social learning focus at CCAFS science meeting March 2013 || ** Completed ** || Wiebke, Phil, Patti || March 2013 ||
 * March 2013 ** CCAFS science meeting ** to be organized around 'communication and social learning for enhanced climate change decision-making' || ** Completed ** || Wiebke, Phil, Patti, Ewen, Peter || 18-19 March 2013 ||
 * To help take this process forward, draw on time from ILRI KMIS group to: support the workshop documenting, drafting of position paper, formulation of strategy; support the engagement process with participants and interested others; support establishment of the advisory committee, innovation fund and sandbox, and contribute to the planned CGIAR stocktaking processes. || ** Completed **
 * Contract signed 2012-2014 ** || Peter, Wiebke, Phil, Patti, Ewen || December 2014 ||
 * Develop social learning definition || ** Completed ** || Alison, Julian, Liz || 7 December 2012 ||
 * Finalize a ' ** strategy document ** ' outlining priority directions and investments for CCAFS in the area of 'communication and social learning for enhanced climate change decision-making'. It should be short and succinct, setting out goals, interventions, critical success factors, niches for CCAFS, engagement and impact pathways, likely partners, indicators of success...
 * 3-pager to be developed through a writeshop.
 * Appendices on e.g.
 * 5 change areas informed by paper by Liz et al.
 * M&E by Wiebke and Phil (mid-Jan.)
 * Possible guidelines? || ** Completed ** || Wiebke, Phil, Liz, Peter || March 2013 ||
 * Do a ** stocktaking ** of relevant ‘social learning and communication’ experiences and expertise across the ** CGIAR ** (including a ** stocktaking workshop ** ) that will help catalyze and connect the currently-scattered community and pockets of innovation. This should focus on the science/research community as well as others with a specific learning, knowledge and communication focus and help identify some of the 'champions of social learning' within the CGIAR. || ** Completed **
 * Synthesize the proposed ** strategic intervention (change) areas ** identified in the meeting, fleshing these out, crystallizing their focus, aligning them with one another, extracting the promising actions and ideas needing follow up. || ** Completed ** || Liz & Blane || December 2012 ||
 * Produce a ' ** CCAFS brief ** ' from the May meeting: See synthesis paper || ** Completed ** || Wiebke, Liz and Philip || December 2012 ||
