Hi all,

I am so so sorry but I have to take a raincheck on the meeting today. Have
a sudden, last minute task to finish for the ICA conference in Rwanda later
this week.

The co-design sessions are planned for Oct. 18 and the second for Oct. 25
so we have a little bit of time.

Apologies for this - do let me know when we can reschedule.

Warm regards,
Salonie
