The second strategic thinking meeting consists of 2 workshops based around:

• Brainstorming Innovative Ideas, Opportunities and Solutions that could be introduced that target the leverage points and meet the goals identified in the previous meeting
• Identifying Options or Alternatives that best meet the needs and realities of the region.

The overall outcome of the meeting will be an elaborated table of specific alternative ideas, opportunities or solutions that will provide the basis for more detailed in-country studies and discussions on options or alternatives.

It is possible to combine this meeting with the first strategic thinking meeting, although in order to ensure that the outputs from the vision and goals workshops are well developed, a separate strategic thinking meeting for brainstorming ideas and opportunities and setting options is advisable.
