Phase 2 proposal process update

Peter Thorne provided an update on the progress. We have an emerging document (minus 1 draft) with some gaps to fill. Useful now to decide who works on them.

Quick comments on sections:

section 3 - vision of success: Comment that the figure provides a good framework but the the final will need impact targets, overall and per region/country. We assume each of the region projects will have their own versions. section 4 - ToC section. PT and BV to continue. section 5 - phase 2 to phase 2. All to comment section 6 - Research questions. PT BV and JG to work on these. section 7.3 - Others. Need partnerships and capacity dev sections here? Boni to draft on partnerships section 10. Need to link to FTF high level incomes + climate change Note: Somewhere we have text on each cross-cutting SI assessment domain framework domains/as headings. Also links to the SI areas impact pathways, research questions section 11 - carlo to update section 13 - PeterB to update from washington DC notes
