Agenda - Reconvened IGO-INGO Protections PDP Working Group (Red Cross) - 15 February 2018 @ 14:00 UTC
Hi All, Below is the proposed agenda for our next meeting scheduled 15 February 2018 at 14:00 UTC. This meeting is scheduled for 90 minutes. Agenda: (0) Roll call, Agenda bash and SOI Updates (1) Recap of WG activities (2) Review spreadsheet of National Societies' Identifiers towards a finite list (attached XLS)** (3) Determine possible agreement of variants within definitive list and confirm criteria that defines the variations (4) If agreement, discuss parallel plan for WG report and public comment; timeline for completion of this effort (5) AoB and next meeting ** This definitive list example was provided by the Red Cross representatives working with each society to help define the scope of identifiers and possible variants. As of now, the list only contains eight National Societies. Red Cross representatives are actively working towards the ten agreed from our last meeting, so there might be an update prior to our scheduled call. As a reminder from our last call, the working version of variants from the official name: 1. Formal/Official name vs. "common or usual" name - the formal name will be supplied by the IFRC and acts as the foundation for a reconcilable list and collaboration is required with each National Society to understand the common or usual name(s). 2. Definite Articles ("the") - the use of definite articles is associated with how a National Society chooses to use their common or usual name. 3. "Society" - the use of "society" is associated with how a National Society chooses to use their common or usual name. 4. Language (English + Official Language(s)) - there was discussion about official language(s) as supplied from GAC advice versus "national language" as determined from the original WG's recommendation. This WG discussed that there was not much deliberation on languages other than English and that the original WG's intent was to match GAC advice on the use of "Official Language(s)" and likely a mistake to document national language. Thus, a few National Societies might have more than one official language. The important element is that each language is properly identified and can be traced backed to the English name of the respective National Society for reconciliation purposes. 5. Country Designation - this is also a variant form to how a National Society uses their common or usual name. PS: I will send this agenda once more next week as a reminder. Full participation is encouraged. Should you have any suggested amendments, please advise. Thank you. B Berry A. Cobb 720.839.5735 mail@berrycobb.com @berrycobb
Dear Berry, dear Thomas, Further to the conclusions of the PDP Working Group telconf held last Thursday, we will plan to provide a list of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies names by end April. We will base ourselves on the agreed criteria and aim to provide a list in the same spreadsheet format as our mock-up list. As agreed, we will keep Berry informed of progress and of any challenges or delays met. Kind regards, Stéphane Stéphane J.
