In preparation for each meeting, the GFMD IMPACT team prepares a literature review analysing the most relevant research and other resources. These are shared with participants in advance of the meeting.
Presenting case studies in this format means that the learning meetings themselves can be more interactive and ensure that those unable to attend are still able to benefit from the presentations.
Where possible, GFMD IMPACT learning meetings have breakout groups where participants are able to discuss in more details the issues raised in the literature reviews, case studies or presentations.
After each meeting, the discussions are written up with the literature review to create a briefing on the topic.
GFMD IMPACT meetings are not for the solicitation of funding.
The topics for these meetings will be chosen based on feedback from GFMD's members and with input from GFMD's policy and learning committee.
