Message from the Chair
It is with pleasure that I formally invite you to attend our AGM on Thursday the 18th of November 2021. This year we have a lot of successes to share as we move in our new strategic direction and focus on advocacy, training, and leadership activities.
Unfortunately, due to the uncertainty of hosting events in the current Covid environment we are unable to hold our AGM in person this year and have decided to host it online. We hope we can host next year’s AGM and other future events in person.
This year we have two board members up for rotation/retirement – Jared Ross and Ivan Knauf. Jared is going to stand again, however, Ivan has decided to retire. Ivan has contributed significantly to the board over the past four years as a passionate and considerate member whose efforts have been greatly valued. Ivan will leave having completed the mammoth task of completely overhauling our outdated constitution into the new legal framework for incorporated societies, with significant support from our long-term supporter, Anderson Lloyd.
We are very fortunate to have guest speaker, economist Cameron Bagrie, joining us to talk about the economic impact of the global pandemic, and the impacts of our current housing, export, and infrastructure activities. Cam is always entertaining and tells it how he sees it.
Please register on our website to receive the link for joining the AGM online.
