Context: What we plan to do over the upcoming ~8 to 10 weeks (late Feb through April 2022) so that we can develop a credible "roadmap" (or at least high level list of objectives / deliverables / activity areas along with resource needs) in line with the annual planning timeline (initial pass late March and finalize in April). 

Mar 3 note: Extended through mid May to cover the proposed May cross pollination meetings between India/Ethiopia

Key Dates / Milestones:

  • Ashu Sikri (Unlicensed) to send weekly updates highlighting key activities and progress

  • Have assigned owners to a few tasks here but I think we need to diffuse this a bit so its not so single threaded; something to discuss on Tue Feb 22

  • Will have a mix of decision making and ideation meetings and can figure out who attends each type. Ideally we can get these on the calendar with clarity on who needs to attend each type by Feb 24

    • Ideation: Share learnings from internal and FPO workshops and deeper dives on proposed entry points to get feedback and leverage collective learnings / network

    • Decision making: (1) What entry points are we shortlisting and eventually piloting as a DFN entry point (if any that are distinct from existing project work). (2) Review and approve DFN budget
