Introduction
JNCC and many Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) have a strong common purpose to support nature conservation in the UK Overseas Territories (UKOTs) and Crown Dependencies (CDs). There are benefits in these bodies working together, utilising their distinct and unique roles to achieve a more collective approach. One mechanism for achieving this is through the JNCC/NGO Overseas Territories & Crown Dependencies Group.
Objectives

1. A more coordinated approach
2. Shared understanding of priorities
3. More efficient use of resources
4. Exchange of knowledge.
The Terms of Reference for the group are outlined below.
