In the Google doc available, you will see the four topics on the meeting agenda: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_yvx7lsJSgHSdl3MO2-xEmXP28gpSfSWOoFWlIhw.... 1. In the third column, you will find required reading for each of the agenda items. Please come prepared to the meeting having reviewed all of the required items. 2. In the fourth and fifth column, you will see proposed “Questions/Clarifications” and “Goals for Topic” respectively. The idea here is to try and provide structure to the discussion and make agenda items as outcome driven as possible, though of course this is not a decisional meeting. Noting that review of the required reading in advance will be helpful, the ask here is that in advance of the meeting, you review the proposed text in the preparation document now and consider if amendments or additions are helpful to support the Council dialogue. Lastly, there are two additional supporting draft documents being prepared to further support the conversation for items 1 (Wave 1.5) and 2 (accuracy briefing paper), which will be shared separately soon. Please let us know if there are any questions or concerns and please do of course engage in any helpful discussion ahead of the meeting on the Council list.
