2023-06-19 Governance Committee Meeting

Festival Germany Mission Oriented Policy Making synergy with GovStack

Incorporate the synergie with Mission Oriented in the research agenda - Use case documentation, etc.

Organisational Structure

Team template is approved.​

Decision needed on which teams to follow.​

Actions afterwards: ​

1. Move to public confluence and task accountable persons to fill in canvas. ​

2. Start country engagement committee. ​

3. Invite all product related teams to PC.​

How to define a team?​

• Few members as possible with same outputs/deliverables​

• Independent from meetings​

• "Being coordinated" is not an argument for constructing a team. That is the purpose of the committees

Team titles which could be a team:​

• Capacity Development Team​

• Compliance Team​

• Testing Harness Team​

• Partnership Team​

• Implementation Playbook Team​

• Knowledge and Tool Team​

• Sustainable Model Team​

• SDG Framework Team​

• Communications Team​

• Architecture Team​

• Women in Tech Team

Country Engagement​

• Somalia Team​

• Kenya Team​

• Ukraine Team​

• Rwanda Team​

• Egypt Team​

• GreenStack Team

Notes

Teams:

• the teams that already exist, plus…

• Capacity Development Team​ - @Nora Hauptmann accountable ✅

• Compliance Team​ - @Nico Lueck ✅

• Testing Harness Team​ - ❌ because it is a group of people delivering part of what Nico needs

• Partnership Team​ - ❓ Investigate further

• Implementation Playbook Team​ - ✅ @Martinez, Yolanda (Deactivated) (do we need this?)

• Knowledge and Tool Team​ - ❌ use Community Growth Team to advise

• Sustainable Model Team​ - ❌ use the Governance Committee for now

• SDG Framework Team​ - ❌

• Communications Team​ - ✅ @Janie Hayes @Arielle Diamond

• Architecture Team​ - ✅ @Steve Conrad

• Women in Tech Team - ❌ not required to run the CoP

We should look at how to organise Country Engagement separately

v2 of SDG Digital Investment Framework

Framework 23Q3 Proposed Outline

DIAL can do the heavy lifting on drafting the new version - but please see the draft outline and suggest edits!

Our goal is to have this ready to release, along with a Summary doc and Call to Action, with the next Spec release (23Q3) since there are a number of different fora occurring in September and October.

Questions:

• Rename to ‘GovStack Framework’?

  • Are there country case studies &/or research you want to include from your org?

@Nora Hauptmann & @Martinez, Yolanda (Deactivated) unable to access document – can we re-share?
Can we add in “howto take a use-case and break it down to systems? And use the playbook”

Recent meeting notes Meetings

Any follow up to Jake’s email re: stimulating demand, better collaboration with WB and UNDP?

To improve upon v1 specs, we need new requirements that come from countries &/or CoPs; we also need to demonstrate demand for GovStack and thus should equip our country partners with knowledge and talking points about GovStack so that we can more rapidly fill the ‘demand funnel’ (both in terms of requests for assistance but also use cases), which will also help fundraising efforts.

Ukraine

Update from GIZ: We are in contact with USAid and jointly approaching Min Digital counterparts for alignment of Diia and Platform of registries.

Senegal
