Special Presentation
- Role of IHE Benefactors and the relationship to the National/Regional Deployment Committees (Mike) (Slides)
- A vibrant discussion was had that recognized the need for Deployment Committees to work with Benefactors in order to reach mutual benefits.
- Benefactor activities (and benefits) need to be articulated BY THE BENEFACTORS, who are encouraged to meet as a group to discuss. Deployment Committees are eager to support Benefactors in their work.
- IHE Australia raised a misconception that the ADHA is expecting their financial contribution to support Deployment Committee activities, which of course is not the case. Vince asked that this be raised at the Board Operations Committee to address expectations - Mike to follow up
- Tone suggested that the Benefactors create a "Playbook", articulating activities and expected outcomes. Deployment Committees are willing to assist as necessary.
- The group discussed how Benefactors can provide a link between "implementation experience" and IHE Development. John advised of work underway to strengthen the production and publication of TF "Volume 4" for each domain, to maximize use and ease of communication. John agreed to present progress at the next GDC meeting - Mike to schedule.
