Dear Members,
As you may be aware since the beginning of the Corona-virus lockdown, which in Italy was officially declared at the beginning of March, FFOA has been launching a series of activities to assist its membership to mitigate as much as possible the serious difficulties occasioned by the lockdown. As a consequence of the lockdown, all Rome based Agencies closed their offices and access to FFOA was only by remote means.
The frequency of the FFOA News Flashes was increased to keep members informed of issues affecting them, the General Assembly that had been scheduled for the end of May was postponed to the end of October and a Working Group (WG) was established to explore and implement technology-based solutions to better inform and service our members thus adapting to the new “modus operandi” imposed by the pandemic.
FFOA is pleased to inform that considerable progress has been achieved by identifying the Zoom software as the most practical teleconferencing platform to be used to organize virtual meetings and to deliver webinar-based seminars. After preliminary analysis of the product and verification of its feasibility with the Rome-based agencies (RBAs) who are using the platform to support their work, FFOA has developed a Quick Start Guide which has been tested through initial practice sessions held in the week of 25th May and subsequently improved as per attached version.
After this initial familiarization programme which involved some 100 members, we want to move to a larger audience by calling the first thematic session that will be delivered by CIGNA on 12 June 2020 at 15:00 (Rome Time) for a max of 2 hours. Additional sessions are envisaged on other subjects of general interest such as Pensions etc.
In order to better manage the webinar, after a general introduction on their experience in providing medical insurance services to the RBAs, CIGNA would be ready to address specific issues of general interest that should be submitted in writing to the following email address ([log in to unmask]) not later than cob 8 June, 2020. Please mention in the email subject “CIGNA Webinar – Queries” and leave your full name/Former UN Agency and FFOA Member ID (if available). The purpose of providing questions in advance is to maximise the use of the Q&A session that is envisaged at the end of the webinar, focussing on clarifications rather than opening new items.
FFOA hopes that this initiative will be welcomed by the membership and that it will successfully support the new approach to the “modus operandi” of our Association.
Best regards,
FFOA Secretariat
