AEU 2022 Assembly Membership Committee Workshop: New Society Development – A Capacity-Building Approach
21 Jul 2022 | 02:45 pm - 04:15 pm
In the past, efforts to establish new Societies have emphasized an early introduction of full-featured platforms led by experienced, often professional, representatives of the AEU. This assembly presentation introduces a new consultative approach that empowers each local organizer to lead their group’s own formation process. This in turn entails a sustained cultivation of personal connections at the local level, grounded in our ethical culture philosophy.
