Transform Africa (April 26-28)

• Nora and David are leading. They are planning a meeting with Donor and Implementing organizations on the topic of digital public infrastucture and how to align on activities in country. They are currently evaluating, in how far GovStack will be involved in this.  Maybe a regional CIO forum, but we can also brainstorm other opportunities.

• Arielle to invite Nora to next Comms Huddle so we can get started on invites to a CIO Forum

  • Let’s aim for invites out 6 weeks in advance (week of WSIS)

• Who will attend from GovStack?

WSIS Prize

Comms for short-list

• Friday is deadline for jury decision, but we have yet to hear from any of them.

Knowledge Management for submissions

  • Events - starting a guest speakers tab

  • Targeted BD discussions

    • Pass short-list to broader group to see how we can engage with each

• add to mailing list

  • Why GovStack

    • v1 with cuts and simple swaps

    • v2 we need to finalize. they do not recommend trying to match the animation and reverse engineer a script.

      • arielle to send cleaned up script and table

  • Buidling block video

    • v1 change - remove “maternal”

    • v2 change - remove “maternal” and add a second parent, change words to “they”, etc.

Social Media posts

Farina

• Posts with regards to GovStack and IDGC should mention all partners and name the initiatives

• Examples:

  • “As part of the “Initiative of Digital Government and Cybersecurity” (IDGC) for the Horn of Africa Initiative (HoAI) we did / met XY …”

  • “co-financed by the European Union and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ)”

• Need to search for templates to share with people:

  • How to submit an event for GovStack social posts

  • Checklist for personal channels

  • Language document

  • Add to Confluence

Website work

• will schedule time for Bittersweet to present their findings from stakeholder research, with Huddle and potentially with GC as well
