There are strategic and thematic working groups within the CCCA. They consider and discuss specific projects, activities, or issues of strategic importance to the CCCA are in a more comprehensive format. The CCCA assists its members in establishing working groups, oversees the activities and ensures that the findings of the WGs are communicated to the network.
The CCCA Board implements strategic working groups to advance specific projects, activities, or issues of strategic importance to the CCCA within a more comprehensive format. Individual members of the CCCA Board are assigned to working groups and the working group members are determined by the Board. The WGs are, however, managed by the members.
The head of a working group coordinates the group activities and in collaboration with the WG representative he or she regularly reports to the Board on the WG’s progress and findings.
