COLLABORATION
The issue of communication and collaboration between all member networks has been raised by
members at recent events including the regional meetings and the general assembly. There have
been instances of committees running very similar events when, had they known about their
shared interests, they would have preferred to work together and to share their experiences.
As all of the networks cover such a broad range of topics it would be helpful if you could complete
the following information to assist staff in proposing potential collaborations. Please include the
topic of an event which you would consider collaborating on with another committee and the
contact name for that area (if left blank we will assume that the contact is the Secretary). To
facilitate communication if you are happy for us to pass your contact email on to the appropriate
person to discuss potential collaboration please indicate below.
This information will be shared with all other member network committees.
