Anticipated outcomes:  

The Spanish Advocacy Task Force will input into Spanish public affairs engagement in policy issues that impact the profession, relevant advocacy initiatives carried out by ISACA, in addition to collaborating on ad hoc projects at ISACA Global’s request (i.e. consultations, etc.).  There could be the option of one in person meeting during this term , but the other meetings, which are scheduled as needed, will be virtual.  In addition to responding to ISACA Global’s requests, the task force will look for and identify opportunities where ISACA could/should position itself in the Spanish market and within Spanish public policy discussions.
