To all Icograda members: this is an opportunity to actively influence the future of our organization!
16 November: Special Sessions for Icograda Educational, Professional and Promotional members
The upcoming 25 Icograda General Assembly promises to be a historic event. Not only will fifty years of Icograda service to the international design community be celebrated, but very important proposals to change the organization's structure and programs will be considered. Members will decide on a major overhaul of the organization to ensure 21st century relevance.
Amongst the proposals submitted by the Board: conversion to a fully multidisciplinary approach; creation of dedicated platforms to address the specific needs of membership categories (professional, educational, promotional); enhanced oversight and auditing functions; IDA reform; etc. (see: Board Message).
In order to maximize member input and participation, and so as to to ensure more effective decision-making at the GA, special sessions will take place on 16 November at the Hilton Bonaventure Hotel. These sessions will permit members to better understand the important proposals submitted by the Board for GA consideration and will permit members to contribute to the discussion and take a more active part in defining the agenda for the next term. These meetings will also initiate organization of the international 2-day member-category-specific events planned for 2014 for which steering committees will be formed.
Please take advantage of the special hotel package for attendees.
Registration for the Sessions and General Assembly can be entered via the registration system. If unable to attend, Icograda members are encouraged to assign a Proxy vote in the registration system.
