what are cross cutting themes
Cross-Cutting Themes. Cross-cutting themes are topics that are relevant to multiple streams. Each theme will be incorporated as a specific focus of the streams and will form an integral part of the overall programme. The focus afforded to these issues means that they will allow special interest groups and initiatives to cluster their efforts and for participants to the World Parks Congress to follow a particular thematic journey across the different streams, and to inspire bold new directions for each theme.
