  • A report on our polio eradication efforts
  • A five-year forecast presented by a director or other Board representative
  • An open forum where participants can make recommendations to the Board.
A special event was the drawing of the winner of the ‘distant attendee’ at DG Arie’s conference , and Janice drew out the name of Stuart Robertson from Ranunga.
