Want to know who represented your country during the COP8 meetings in Geneva? Have a look at the list. Maybe you'll be surprised by the size of some delegations, wondering what the cost has been in travel and hospitality. A few examples below. Some do live in Geneva as they work for the Permanent Mission there but not all. Are so many delegates really necessary? Were there more than 130 people representing FCA?(pages 36, 37) as "observers'?
BURKINA FASO: 8 persons, Kenya: 12 persons
Nigeria: 17 persons Sénégal: 18 persons... South Africa: 4
Tunisia: 3 Togo: 3 Uganda:5 Tanzania: 13 Zambia: 13 Zimbabwe: 13
on page 35 you start having the representatives of NGOs: CTFK: 16
FCA (page 36 and 37): too many to count !32? (check yourself)
