In its 14th year of organizing Round Tables for international associations, this will be the first time UIA will hold the event in a fully virtual format.
Participants will meet speakers who are association experts and who will describe challenges they face in their association life and how they are dealing with these. Delegates and speakers will split into virtual break-out rooms for parallel sessions, where each speaker will present a workshop on their topic. In the virtual break-out-rooms, delegates will be able to conduct discussions in real time with the speaker and their peers.
The programme of this UIA Associations Round Table will address topics of immediate interest and relevance for associations, such as working with remote teams, finding the ideal destination for an event, association business model innovation, mobilizing resources, achieving goals and finding partners. A keynote speech from the UIA President on the UN’s 75th Anniversary will also be part of the programme.
