Hi --
Ø I'll have to check, but it might be that ADHO has the prerogative to sponsor one session at the conference. If that is true, we could propose this session to the SC. Perhaps Ray knows about this possibility and could enlighten us.
Indeed, we do, in one of the lunchtime slots. Sometime we've used it, sometime we haven't, but the SC ultimately is responsible for this.
Cheers,
Ray

Dan and all,
We might think of doing both, perhaps in the following ways:
(1) A session, as you suggest, in Chinese DH: but someone would have take fast action right now to get the proposal in before Nov. 1. I'll have to check, but it might be that ADHO has the prerogative to sponsor one session at the conference. If that is true, we could propose this session to the SC. Perhaps Ray knows about this possibility and could enlighten us.
(2) A roundtable at the centerNet/ACH or at the ADHO lunchtime business meetings on the larger issue of DH in low and mid economies. Perhaps this could be structured through a set of proposals that could be taken to address the issue.

While we are hammering out terms of reference, a concrete work item. One useful way of getting the ball rolling might be to schedule a session at DH.
I could see two possibilities: one is to look at the larger issue of the lack of DH in low and mid income economies; the other is to concentrate on a specific area. Given the interests and ongoing activities, it seems to me that Latin America/Caribbean and/or PRC are the two best candidates.
What do others think? A really interesting session might be DH in/on China, for example. There is lots of great work going on.
Any ideas?
