[Bp_localcontent] Scheduling next group call - August 11 or 12 (Stuart Hamilton)

[Stuart Hamilton]

Hi Everyone

Many thanks for filling out the Doodle poll for the next call. I can see that the best option is Tuesday 12th August at 5pm UTC (http://doodle.com/ihvm839sqp3tfph8). Please mark this date in your diaries and Susan and I shall liaise with the call organisers and come back to you with more details about call-in etc.

Looking forward to our continued discussions, and happy to see some new people on board/about to come on board. It would be great if you could share any thoughts on what has been working well in your experience for the production of local content, as well as any unintended consequences of policy interventions - as per subjects 4 and 5 on our list.

Kind regards,

Stuart

Hi everyone

I'm back from two weeks' holiday and am ready to talk local content once more. Specifically, I'm keen to move us forward with our schedule, and discuss the following two issues from our schedule:

4.     What worked well, identifying common effective practices 

5.     Unintended consequences of policy interventions, good and bad 

I've reviewed the recent exchanges on the list, and also the helpful summaries. I note that so far we have looked at regional specificities, as well as existing policy measures and private sector initiatives & impediments for the creation of local content under the following three areas:

Area 1 - Human Capacities
Area 2 - Technical Infrastructure
Area 3 - Legal Frameworks

I'm including them again here to again act as a guide as we move forward. Our next task is to identify what's worked well so far when it comes to the eventual creation of local content. What is common effective practice, where you come from? Is it possible to see, based on your input, if successful approaches have anything in common with each other? Have there been any unintended consequences, positive or negative, from the policy interventions that have been used to try to stimulate the production of local content in your country? 

The output from the discussions so far leads me to believe that we are in pretty good shape in terms of getting something to the consultants who will synthesise our discussions. I hope we can add some more quality information as we move through our discussion of effective practices and unintended consequences.

Looking forward to hearing from you all. 

Kind regards,

Stuart

Hi everyone

We should schedule another call to discuss the next round of contributions. Please fill out the Doodle poll here as soon as you can - I have based the times around what seemed feasible for us last time.
