The 2021 ECOLISE General Assembly (GA) will take place virtually from April 16th-18th 2021.

ECOLISE’s annual General Assembly is the ideal gathering at which to meet other ECOLISE members and review the work of our network in the year gone by. We will explore how we best collaborate and accelerate the implementation of ECOLISE’s action programme, Communities for Future.  Attendance at the GA is both an opportunity and a responsibility for all members to ensure we are doing our best to represent your needs.

This year engagement will be particularly important as there will be council elections and nominations, including nominations for Co-Presidents. Being part of the council is a way for member representatives to engage more deeply with the strategic direction of ECOLISE and it’s important we have nominations from across the membership, so watch out in the coming weeks for a delegate nomination form.

The planning group aims to make this a rich and effective meeting and are exploring how best to facilitate members’ engagement leading up to and through the GA. To start the year we’ll be running a webinar on how you can engage with Communities for Future and other ECOLISE opportunities on February 23rd – with more details soon.

By engaging in ECOLISE’s activities we can add value to our own networks and increase our transformative impact at the local and national level. Through bringing your network/organisation’s wisdom and energy and by nominating delegates to represent you at the GA, you are shaping our work to serve and scale up community-led climate action.

So make sure your membership is up to date and save the date!

ECOLISE Co-Presidents
