*Agenda:*

   -

   Review the definition of Internationalization and Localization
   <https://www.w3.org/International/questions/qa-i18n> provided by the
   Internationalization Working Group. “In a nutshell: Designers and
   developers internationalise products, so that they can be easily localised
   by translators and localisers.”
   -

   Consider making a user story for "Cognitive Accessibility Issue Papers -
   Voice Systems and Conversational Interfaces
   <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B1vCqlU1IF5UmqxhJAy8Khdi-kRQNPalVX8f3lCMr7w/edit?usp=sharing>"
   that addresses localization and internationalization - using “Care
   Management” vs. “Healthcare Management” as an example. Will need to draft
   the user story in a different document.
   -

   Start building a testing considerations table for different languages -
   please check Julie Rawe’s comment in the July Tab
   <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q3eVdTVfErkeXMukdiNVRC1MgIDMv_2FrgJ_62silfE/edit?tab=t.7qp43a3keop#heading=h.7crn40hv0nhj>
   in response to the question about whether a table would help.
