The Past President of IIBA®-SA, Lucy Davies, was invited to join IIBA® GCC, Global Chapter Council, to hold the position of Regional Deputy Director Africa. This is the first time Africa has a representative at IIBA® GCC level within EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa).
This means that Africa now has its own voice through Lucy as conduit person between IIBA® Chapter Leaders in Africa and IIBA®. The GCC meet monthly and Lucy shares IIBA® content with the Chapter Presidents in Africa via various channels and forums.
