Dear all, 

 

Find attached some of the key documents of the GAID Strategic Council and
Steering Committee meeting taking place on 18 May 2008 (in particular the
annotated agendas of the strategy council and steering committee, as well as
the GAID progress report, the latest version of the GAID Business plan for
2008, the outcome of the GAID evaluation and a background note on the vision
for the future of GAID).

It will be followed by the GAID Global Forum on Access and Connectivity and
Innovative Funding for ICT for Development on 19 and 20 May 2008.

 

These documents and others and been circulated by the GAID Secretariat over
this week and should be available on the GAID website
(http://www.un-gaid.org/) – but I experience some difficulties to reach the
webpage of the up coming meeting.

 

The key issues to be discussed will include the following topics:

 

-          Up dates on the progress of GAID initiatives (in particular
Flagship Partnership Initiatives, Partnerships for Advocacy, Communities of
Expertise and regional networks)

-          Presentation of proposed new initiatives to the Strategy Council
and motion to adopt them by the Steering Committee.

-          Discussion on the future of GAID, which will also be considered
in the light of the outcome of the GAID external evaluation – performed by
the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs of Syracuse University.

 

Note that Renate Bloem, as member of the Steering Committee, will be
attending both the Steering Committee and the Strategy Council meetings,
alongside with other CS persons also member of this list.

Feel free to get back to me or to her or on this list if you have any
comment or contribution that you would like to see forwarded to the
discussion in KL.

 

We will report back to you in details about the outcomes of this meeting.

 

Best regards, 

 

Philippe
