Working groups.
The whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
These groups are voluntary and include those who have an interest in a number of themes. Broadly, they:
-
Review the work done so far in these areas
-
Share updates, gaps and opportunities
-
Help shape and propose value propositions and projects
