The Multi-stakeholder Advisory Board is a core team to the research, providing advice and key resources in the national assessment process. The Multi-stakeholder Advisory Board was constituted in February as per our previous project report and following three virtual meetings since the constitution, the multi-stakeholder advisory board finally met in person on the 15^th of June 2023. The meeting took place at the UN House Boardroom for a half-day meeting.

This meeting served as a platform for members of the MAB to the research team in person. Furthermore, the meeting also served as a platform for providing input to the research through an in-person modality.

The meeting was attended by 17 participants, 11 members of the multi-stakeholder advisory board and (four) 4 members of the research team. During this report, a new member of the Multi-stakeholder Advisory Board was advanced by the Namibia Statistics Agency.
