ELECTIONS – This is our coalition – let’s take it forward together!
You may remember that the last AGM agreed that we would move to a new governance structure with a full Executive Board as from the 2023 AGM.
This means that the ELECTION of board members is more important than ever!

• Please find a NOMINATION FORM for the Board elections HERE. 

We are looking to continue to ensure representation from diverse faiths and other sectors. Please consider prayerfully who might have the skills, experience and passion to serve on the board over the next 3 years.
If you would like to offer yourself to serve on the Board, please ask someone to nominate you. The most effective Board members are often those who have a clear vision for what they can offer.
(If you struggle to download the form, please ask Mosidinyana at admin@wwsosa.org.za to send you the form.)
