2.0 EXPANDING COUNTRY AND REGIONAL PARTICIPATION IN THE MOJALOOP COMMUNITY
Mr. Innocent Ephraim introduced an initiative to make Community meetings more inclusive moving forward, and attract more attention at the country level for Convenings. This would involve collaborating with host country financial institutions to serve as convener and champion Mojaloop’s work at the national level. Mr. Ephraim referred to a document that had been previously circulated to the group for review, and requested feedback from the Council. Discussion was held.
It was proposed that parliamentarians and government officials also be included in this initiative to encourage additional advocacy at the lawmaking level. Civil society members were also proposed for inclusion.
As the 22-24 July Convening will be fully virtual, this initiative would be implemented at the 21-23 October Convening in East Africa (location TBC).
ACTION: Mr. Oriko to add document to Google drive and distribute for feedback.
ACTION: Council members to review the document and provide feedback directly within by Thursday 29 May.
ACTION: Mr. Oriko to take semi-final version of document to the internal Mojaloop team for buy-in and bring feedback to the upcoming 2 June Council meeting for next steps.
5.0 ADJOURN: Meeting adjourned at 9:46 AM ET.
