FYI,
Dear all,
Just a slight reminder of *Friday* (28^October) morning meeting on the
IDDR 2012 in *Lotus meeting room*, UNDP Compound at *9 am*. Just to
stress that this is the _very last joint meeting of all the
stakeholders_ before the main event on 12^th October and so it will be
the last opportunity to confirm/adjust things.
Attendance of all of you will be more than appreciated.
Best,
Ela

Dear all,
Thanks to those of you who attended the meeting yesterday on IDDR.
The meeting continued our series of discussions around the IDDR events
from the week of the 8th to 12th October.
The meeting covered:
· The *12th October IDRR *agenda – /please find attached the
revised Agenda for the 12th – please note action points therein!/
The *lead speakers* to talk around the main messages of the day were
agreed as follows:
1. *Recognize the strength of women and girls in reducing disaster
risks!* /Hãy ghi nhận sức mạnh của phụ nữ và trẻ em gái trong giảm nhẹ
rủi ro! Natalia (Viet Nam/NGO perspectives) and Madhavi
(international/regional perspectives)/
2. *Women and girls make a safe community* /Phụ nữ và trẻ em gái góp
phần làm cho (xây dựng) cộng ðồng an toàn/ UNWOMEN
3. *Women and men: hand in hand building safer communities* /Phụ nữ và
nam giới chung tay xây dựng cộng ðồng an toàn hõn National Assembly – UNDP/
4. *Women and girls: voices to be heard in risk reduction* /Hãy lắng
nghe kinh nghiệm của phụ nữ và trẻ em gái trong giảm nhẹ rủi ro! hoặc
/or/ Hãy lắng nghe phụ nữ và trẻ em gái nói về các biện pháp giảm nhẹ
rủi ro! Viet Nam Women’s Union/UNWOMEN/
*/Speakers/*/please note that all speeches should be sent in by *Monday
8^th * in both English and Vietnamese to Ms Nguyen Viet Lan
//nguyen.viet.lan at undp.org/ <mailto:nguyen.viet.lan at undp.org>/. Thanks!/
· Progress on the *development of the book* – more than 12
stories have so far been received and editing is on-going – the deadline
was extended until Friday 14th! Edited English versions will be sent
back to the sending organizations next week for help with checking
accuracy and for completion of the translation into Vietnamese (by
respective organizations)
· *Videos* for the short film to be shown on the 12th – at least 3
videos have been/are being made and others have been received! Please
send these asap to Mr. Trinh Anh Tuan trinh.anh.tuan at one.un.org
<mailto:trinh.anh.tuan at one.un.org>. Thanks!
· *Media coverage*
o A *media briefing* with a panel comprised of the speakers we be held
during the morning tea/coffee break. After that, relevant panelist(s)
will stay on for one-on-one TV interviews while the rest of the panel
will go back to the main event.
o In order to ensure that we get as much attention as possible for the
events of the week a *media advisory* will be sent to all media on the
list (previously circulated) comprising the agenda, the invitation
letter and short bio on the main speakers, as well as the events around
Hanoi and the rest of the country will be sent by UN Comms 1-2 weeks
before the event. Linked to this, a *press release *needs to be
discussed at the _next meeting_: should this be from UN Comms or a joint
one with other non-UN organizations, particularly those in the JANI?
· The events from the *8th to 11th October* – in Hanoi and in
the provinces – the *list of events* sent some time ago needs completing
asap so that we can let media/others know of the events in advance;
please therefore take a few minute to complete the attached and send
back to Ms Nguyen Viet Lan nguyen.viet.lan at undp.org
<mailto:nguyen.viet.lan at undp.org>, thanks. Viet Lan can let the media know.
· *AoB *
o the issue of *the banner* was discussed in detail (see mock up
attached for comment) – we had some lively discussion around this and
need to resolve the issue of whose logos appear asap. Please let me know
your thoughts.
o The *Dong Thap event* being organized by Save (ToR sent around
previously) was discussed hotly – some concern was expressed as to the
cost of the event and whether, as yet proposed but unfunded events in
Hanoi and elsewhere, could benefit from the DIPECHO funds. More should
be discussed next time with Gia and Save colleagues!
Please note that the *next IDDR meeting* will be on *Thursday 20th
September from 3-5 pm in the UN Country Office Rose Meeting* *Room.
*This is likely to be the _penultimate meeting_ before the events from
the 8th to 12th October so you are encouraged to attend.
**
We look forward to seeing you again then.
Kind regards,
Ian**
