## Updates

* **Review actions and updates**
  * **Update on UNDP**
    * The Secretary reported that UNDP had responded regarding KYC issues, and the Committee requested confirmation that all six countries identified in the proposal remained actively engaged.
  * **Update on the KPI survey**
    * The Committee noted that three or four responses had been received, with further committee feedback still expected before the survey was closed and the research findings compiled.
  * **Update on ELK Consortium Milestone 1**
    * The Secretary reported that ELK Consortium had completed its first milestone but had not yet formally submitted it, and agreed to provide instructions for submission through the new milestone process.
* **Complete the Committee survey**
  * The Committee completed or progressed the committee-effectiveness survey during the session and provided feedback on questions concerning participation across multiple committees.
* **Review feedback for TKNFRA and Wada**
  * The Committee reviewed the proposed milestone-review process, agreeing that milestone submissions should be made through GitHub and reviewed by two Committee reviewers followed by the Chair, while initial feedback on TKNFRA identified points requiring clarification against its proposal and milestone criteria.
* **Discuss 2027 deliverables**
  * The Secretary recalled the proposed 2027 deliverables framework and noted that, although the related budget proposal was not approved, funding may become available through Intersect to progress work on critical unfunded processes, with further planning to follow once funding is confirmed.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://productcommittee.docs.intersectmbo.org/committee-meeting-notes/2026/20th-february-2025-1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
