Dear ALI Fellows,
In the context of the series of the ALI dialogues, actions being undertaken by various ALI Fellows, the current South African Context, and my previous communication about the boards’ commitment to institutionally strengthen ALI, we will be holding a series of dinners during May and June.
We are aware that many of you have been frustrated by the stop-and-start process around strengthening ALI as an organization, and the desire for ALI to support and connect Fellows so they can be more impactful. In order to address this need, and provide an additional platform for engagement and networking, we will be holding a series of dinners hosted by ALI Fellows; in Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Durban. There will be multiple dates to ensure that everyone is accommodated.
At these dinners we will:
- Share with you the current Vision,Values, strategy and value proposition
- Share the upcoming programme, particularly the Pan-Africa Impact Forum
- Share the current actions and projects of ALI Fellows
- Provide space for input, networking, and collaboration
The times and details of the dinners are as follows:
Johannesburg:
Wednesday 7 June, hosted by Pulane Kingston
Thursday 8 June, hosted by Doris Tshepe
Tuesday 13 June, hosted by Adi Enthoven
Thursday 22 June, hosted by Enzo Scarcella
Durban:
Tuesday 23 May, hosted by Bruce Robertson
Cape Town:
Thursday 18 May, Co-ordinated by Karl Westvig
Please indicate which dinner you would like to attend, and send your response to Chenai via email: chenai@alisa.co.za
Best wishes,
Adi Enthoven.
