Dear All,
I regret to inform you that the requested meeting with the CRS Myanmar delegation on the 29th July was not occurred due to lack of availability by most organisations.

So  the WG planned for Thursday 8th Aug is still on. This will be a MRE/VA focused meeting and I ask all those organisations that work on these issues to give a small presentation (15min) on what they do differently to others. Please send me the title of your presentation so I can generate an agenda. Also, if there are any other people you would like to request to join the meeting (e.g. members of the government), please let me know ASAP and we can try to get an invitation to them.

Lastly, I am not sure if I will be able to attend due to appointments in Bangkok. At this stage, I should be able to, but as it is uncertain, can I ask for a volunteer to 1) chair the meeting and 2) take minutes. Again, please let me know ASAP and I will include it into the agenda.

Regards

Dear Jonathon,

Sorry to bother you on this when you are on vacation.  I just wanted to request that it would be great if this meeting decision can be finalized by Monday, as we are also planning other meetings.  As I mentioned earlier, since our group is also pretty large, this meeting does not need to be with the whole MREWG, but with a few whosoever is available, to discuss how MREWG works, the role of NGO and government in MRE, how coordination mechanism works and the approach in MRE programs in VN.

I am traveling from today until 28th of July, and hence, kindly copy Sanda Rihtman (cc’d here) on all these mails as she will be filling the gaps, while I am traveling.

Thank you and everyone for arranging this meeting,

Kind regards,

Snigdha

Dear LWG members,

We have a request from CRS to gather a MRE/VA focused meeting on the morning of the 30th July (see below). I know that we have set a date to hold a meeting on the 8th Aug, but would everyone be able to adjust the dates to accommodate the visitors of CRS on the 30th? if there are no major objections, I will make the necessary arrangements with the NGORC.

Even though I am on leave, I will be checking email periodically.

Subject: Request for a meeting with CRS Myanmar delegation visit in July
Importance: High

Dear Ms Thao Griffiths and Mr. Jonathon Guthrie
Greetings!
CRS Vietnam is hosting a high level exchange visit from Myanmar Department of Social Welfare, CRS Myanmar and Karuna Myanmar Social Services (KMSS) – our local partner from Myanmar. The visit will be from 28th July to 2nd August.  The purpose of the visit is to share achievements and learning on CRS Mine Risk Education and Inclusive Education projects, implemented in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Training (MOET) and Ministry of Labor Invalids and Social Affairs  (MOLISA) and their relevant provincial departments. The visit will include meetings with different government authorities in Hanoi on 29th and 30th July and in Quang Nam province on July 31, as well as visit to CRS’ Mine Risk Education and inclusive Education project sites in Quang Nam province.
In this regard, I would like to know if  a sharing and de-briefing meeting can be arranged at the INGO resource center with MREWG and VVAF together, to discuss disability issues/IE and MRE approach in Vietnam, Govt – NGO cooperation on these two issues and NGO contribution to relevant policy developments in VN. We are available for this meeting on 30th July at 9:30 am onwards until lunch time.
 Please find attached the list of participants in the delegation.   Sanda and I will also join the delegation.
 Thanks and regards,
 Snigdha
