Dutch term
procestafel
Dutch to English
Bus/Financial
Management
Back after a longer absence from ProZ with a term that I can't quite work out. I'm translating a strategic document that mentions "het inzetten van procestafels op regionaal niveau". I get the sense that they're talking about strategy discussions with employees, but I'm a little baffled by the term as I haven't come across it before.
What would be the best, most natural translation for this? Process management roundtables?

"RESULTS AND LEARNING
The Athens-Petersberg Process leveraged
some key outcomes, especially in the period
2004 to 2008.
The Process contributed concretely to building
capacity of a large range of SEE stakeholders at
the regional, national and local levels regarding
TWRM, through cross-fertilization of knowledge
and experiences and introduction of new
elements and lessons learned from outside the
region. At Process Roundtables, stakeholders
communicated their aspirations and views on
challenges and necessary responses regarding
TWRM in their countries and identified
cooperation opportunities."

: I think just roundtable(s) might do where 'round' suggests the 'process': "Het presidium gaf daarbij aan het rondetafelgesprek te zien als een positief begin van een interactief proces tussen de gemeente en de betreffende sectoren."
