Last updated: Aug 30, 2018
  • 2-day co-design sessions for each of: 
    • beauty services coop
      • customer-facing app fairly straightforward, lots of examples out there
      • want more the back-end app for workers
    • members of federation
      • want governance / information dissemination / marketplace
      • probably first day more general and a larger group
      • second day smaller, more focused, concrete
  • last week September not good now - Namya attending a conference
  • Early Oct not good for Michelle and Dana due to DEEP conference in Toronto
  • having a website is important for beauty coop
    • a very simple wordpress site for now?
    • how to host it?
    • IDRC can look at domain name etc
  • discussed possible dates for co-design and festival/holiday dates in India
  • week of Nov 12 or Nov 19 might be best
  • we will send an idea of what we want to do in co-design sessions to Namya
  • look at what we did for Bodies in Translation project
  • then Namya can help us to determine how to structure the sessions best
  • don't want to bring too much content or concrete ideas in, as women will likely just say - yes, ok, you know best
  • want to solicit their ideas
  • meet again next Thursday same time
