The primary function of the openIMIS Stakeholder Committee is to provide advice to support the overall outcomes of the openIMIS Initiative. The Stakeholder Committee is expected to provide guidance to the initiative in growing the community of practice, building a robust yet flexible product and increasing implementations of the tool for managing various types of social protection schemes.
Members of the Stakeholder Committee ensure that the Initiative’s overall vision reflects in its activities, and the direction of the initiative remains efficient and effective.
