People In Aid’s Members’ Forum and AGM
The following day, 24 November 2010, we are hosting our Members’ Forum and Annual General Meeting, which give participants the opportunity to learn about People In Aid’s plans for 2011 and beyond. The venue is the same as the day before, Bonhill House in London EC2.
Our Members' Forum is usually reserved for our members only - however, this year we have a limited number of spaces available for those non-members who attend the previous day's Leadership Summit. The first session of the Members' Forum is about member engagement and our future plans. The second session will be an interactive round-table session which will reflect on the outcomes of the previous day and offer an opportunity for participants to debate some of the deeper around leadership in the humanitarian and development sector. The AGM will take place thereafter; however, as usual, voting is restricted to members only.
Spaces are limited for non-members and so please book early to avoid disappointment
