Announcement of the General Assembly 2023
Posted on 04/12/2023
Dear All,
We are delighted to announce Climanosco’s Eighth General Assembly which will be held live on Friday 22 December 2023 from 12:30 to 14:30 Swiss time (11:30 to 13:30 UTC) on video-conference via Zoom.
All material pertaining to the General Assembly is available on the official General Assembly page: www.climanosco.org/ga2023.
The Zoom link will be emailed to you a day before the General Assembly. The Zoom link can be opened in a browser such as Firefox, Chrome or Edge from a computer or tablet. It is recommended to connect using the Zoom link on the 22 December about 30 minutes prior to the start.
Make sure you have access to your emails for the email address used to register to Climanosco during the General Assembly. Since we don’t know every members personally, we might start the Assembly by emailing a code to each participant to confirm their membership with the Association.
We intend to record the Assembly for internal use. Please get in touch with us if this is a problem for you.
Elections for the Board of Directors
We warmly invite you to help shape the future of the Climanosco organization and send your candidature to become a Member of the Board of Directors. As per our Statutes, the Board of Directors is composed of 9 – 13 members in near-parity between scientists and non-scientists. This year we have up to 8 open seats and 3 candidates for renewal.
If you are interested in getting involved, please send the following material by 12 December 23:59 UTC to the contact address below.
- A short bio;
- A statement on your vision for Climanosco (e.g. why you find this project important, what’s your vision for the next 5-10 years; you can be creative!);
This material will be made available to the logged-in members on the General Assembly page and will help them make a vote. Being a member of the Board of Directors will take you about 1 hour per week, on average, and you can make an impact.
