The purpose of the webinar is to:

• Share strategies that have been successful in other jurisdictions
• Identify ways in which these strategies can be improved
• Identify ways that NCSD can improve its own MSM portfolio

The first webinar is divided into the three following sections:

• Introduction of the MSM Report Card developed by Thomas Bertrand in coordination with NCSD
• Identifying where the report card can be improved upon
• Gathering feedback related to NCSD’s MSM work, and identifying where it can be improved

Importantly, this webinar is an opportunity to gather input from project areas to inform the development of a comprehensive plan of action to improve NCSD’s MSM related work.
