On April 28-30 Sara Jervfors (Head of the Diet Unit in Södertälje) from the Lead Partner and Helena Nordlund, Lead Expert visited Molétai for a bilateral meeting aiming at continuing the Diet for a Green Planet practice transfer, elaborating a general work plan for the production of the Diet for a Green Planet Handbook and to plan Molétai's participation in the transational conference in Södertälje later in May.
Here is a short summary of the process status and actions needed:
- Coordination and cooperation functions well, but the Lithuanian coordinator sometimes suffers from lack of time and expects a very rapid handling of project issues. This has to be taken in account in the coming cooperation.
- Local Support Group, LSG, is formed with 21 members. Six of them will come to the Södertälje conference, and big part of the Handbook workgroup consists of LSG members. So far everything is OK. Nevertheless, political support is weak and that may cause problems to create a Local action plan. This will need attention.
- Diet for a Green Planet transfer process is started in a positive way. Needs to continue according to project plan at Södertälje Conference in May and during Lead expert’s follow up visits in the autumn.
- Work plan Handbook is now established on a general level. Needs follow up according to project plan with personal contacts local coordinator and Lead expert. Principally to assure that the involved parties have understood the concept and which texts will be included. One text on food and environment from Lead Expert has to be translated into English and sent to Loreta.
- Lithuanian participation in transnational meetings is limited due to national payment rules. This has to be discussed and solved through the Lead partner budget, in order to make sure that the right people will be able to travel.
- To find politicians prepared to travel abroad will need more efforts. Loreta will come back to Södertälje project leader with suggestions.
