Hi Josh, apologies if this was detailed elsewhere, but do you have any skills youâre after for pool members? Iâd be keen to help out if you thought I could.
Thanks for your interest! Iâve copied a description of the pool work below to give a better sense, but basically itâs mostly research tasks that are like âresearch how vaccine distribution (not purchasing doses) is normally funded for new vaccines and write a 3-5 paragraph summary)â or âtake a 3-5 paragraph summary someone wrote and create 3-6 sentences of suggested text to include in the status reportâ or âcite-check a section of talking points to make sure all the facts mentioned have citations and that those citations actually support the facts.â
Overall, weâre very much in a âmore the merrierâ stage and would love your help.
Here are more details on the scheme:
Plan for a Pool System to Handle Research/âTalking Points
Our talking points are intended to be a live, continually updated document representing our best understanding of malaria vaccination and how to improve rollout. In a sense it is intended to be a âglobal workspaceâ for our campaign thinking, where new research on key questions is inputted and accurate and relevant information about vaccination is shared across the campaign. Stylistically the talking points are intended to emphasize brevity, simplicity, and ease of use by a general audience.
To create a manageable process to continually update and improve the document (i.e. by executing this rolling punch list of tasks), we propose a pool system where volunteers sign up for a five days per month where they are âon-callâ and will be assigned a 1-2.5 hour task per day, with assignments going out the night before and due the following morning (e.g. a Monday pool task would go out Sunday night and be due Tuesday morning). The expectation would be pool members would ideally sign up for two 2-day blocks and one 1-day block in a month or 3-day and 2-day blocks. The blocks are so that larger tasks (3-5 hours) can be assigned over a two day period.
Weâd aim to have at least eight pool members and one pool manager.
