Ahead of September’s EFA Skillshare and AGA, members and board members came together over Zoom last week to meet one another, share important issues and priorities in their countries and organisations, and hear about EFA’s key focuses for the coming months.

Among those present were representatives from member organisations in 13 countries, including Fundraisers Forum (Belgium) and France générosités, who have both joined in recent months.

The Members’ Meeting started with an introduction from president Charlotte Rydh before the floor was given to attendees to share the top current issues for their organisations and civil society in their countries. Commonly shared issues included shrinking civic space, changing legislation at national and EU level, and the recruitment and retention of fundraisers at all levels.

Attendees then heard board members share their strategic plans for EFA and present short reviews of current public affairs issues, partnership opportunities, communications, and the Certification programme.

Charlotte Rydh, EFA president commented:

“Meetings like these are an important way for us to keep up to date with the key issues our members are facing, and we will follow up on some of these at September’s Skillshare. They’re also a great opportunity for members to meet and widen their network, and of course for EFA to share our own strategic plans and priorities. It was wonderful to see so many attend.”

This year’s Skillshare and AGA will take place in Prague on 21-22 September, with more details to follow soon.
