Movement Charter/Drafting Committee/Diversity and Expertise Matrices

It will also include consultation with communities and organizations as well as research and consultation with experts. The group will not be a governance body. It must have diversity of members and skills fitting to their work. The Diversity matrix below suggests the factors expected to be covered. The Expertise matrix suggests the skills necessary to work as a solid team, including content expertise suggested in the recommendations.
