Connecting People and Sharing Knowledge Worldwide
It has been really good to come together ‘down under’ in Melbourne Australia at the IFME Congress. I am happy to share a few key points from our in person Board Meeting this week:
· IFME Awards – each country to please submit two (2) award nominations before the end of May 2024.
· VP Election – the process for the election of Vice President was discussed. A voting portal link will be sent by Chris Champion (IFME Secretary General).
· Committee Reports – verbal reports were received from the three sub committees, Technical, Marketing & Communications and Leadership.
· Webinars – New interesting topics for webinars required, please submit these to David Jenkins (Technical Sub Committee)
· Micro-credential Badges – New Zealand (Priyani de Silva-Currie) presented a link to a free badge for member countries to distribute to their member country governance boards and infrastructure leaders. https://apopo.co.nz/product/gov-101-infrastructure-leadership-and-governance/
· New Country Members – Pieter discussed the process underway for new members including Poland, Ghana, Kenya and Mexico. Next year Namibia has also shown interest.
