3.0 REVIEW FEEDBACK FROM NAIROBI COMMUNITY MEETING
Simeon reviewed the attendance statistics and survey results from the Nairobi Community Meeting. The meeting, which attracted the highest attendance to date, received generally positive feedback. Simeon noted that the survey results may not accurately reflect the opinions of most attendees, as only 24 responses were collected despite over 300 individuals participating both in-person and online.

An inquiry was made regarding the CoCo's obligation to address the survey feedback. Simeon confirmed that adopter input primarily undergoes deliberation at the Product Council.

A proposal was made to distribute a survey following the upcoming Speaker Bureau webinars. Simeon confirmed he will request this action from the Marketing team.

It was noted that the leaders of each objective are welcome to arrange separate meetings as needed.

James emphasized widespread agreement on the community's involvement in the process and confirmed that confidentiality will be upheld throughout the process.

Simeon clarified that any requests or input regarding the TGB Task Force should be directed to James going forward. Should there be any procedural concerns, Simeon advised addressing them with a TGB representative or Miller, the TGB Chair. Simeon encouraged individuals to voice their opinions as needed. Min committed to crafting and circulating a formal proposal for restructuring the DA.

James confirmed that the draft terms of reference include a communication strategy, ensuring regular updates to the CoCo, unless there's insignificant progress to report. The timeline remains flexible, with expectations and time commitments expected to be outlined in the coming weeks with the assistance of the TGB.

6.0 AOB
A question arose concerning the DA charter's provisions regarding participation in DA calls. Simeon clarified that outside the annual charter review window, inquiries regarding the DA charter should be addressed to the DA Co-Chairs. It was emphasized that the CoCo charter explicitly outlines the process for joining calls, outlining that attendance as an observer requires agreement from the Co-Chairs. James stated he is happy to raise this matter during the DA call to ensure clarity on the observer position within the DA charter.
