    Dear colleagues,<br>
    <br>
    with the new financial year FY19 having started on please be so kind
    to find the information below about the Community Regional Outreach
    Program (CROP).<br>
    <br>
    At present, we need to do two things:<br>
    <br>
    1. appoint or re-appoint CROP programme committee representatives<br>
    2. draft our Outreach Strategic Plan<br>
    <div class="m_8014050020609550757moz-forward-container"><br>
      May I suggest that we appoint two new representatives on this
      committee? We need to do this as soon as possible. As this is an
      administrative function, may I suggest that we send out a call for
      candidates and have the EURALO Board make the selection? I would
      recommend that at least one of the two people should be Wale
      Bakare or me, as this function is closely related to EURALO
      strategy.<br>
      <br>
      As for drafting out an Outreach Strategic Plan, may I suggest that
      this be undertaken by the EURALO ALS Engagement Task Force? Work
      needs to start immediately.<br>
      <br>
      Kindest regards<br>
      <br>
      Olivier<br>
