NENA News Update

Fortnightly round-up of upcoming meetings, webinars, events and projects

 

Seasons Greetings from the NENA Coordinating Hub!
Hi everyone!
This is our final NENA News Update for 2021, and the NENA Coordinating Hub would like to wish you all the very best for the festive season.  We'd like to thank all the new volunteers who have stepped forward to work with the Coordinating Hub in 2022, and who helped with our amazing conference in November.  And THANK YOU to all NENA Members and friends for making 2021 a fantastic year for building the new economy in Australia.
Our final updates this month are as follows:

  • NENA's 'virtual office' will be closed from 17 December until 31 January - the volunteers in our NENA Coordinating Hub are taking a much needed break, but will be back on deck in February, to support our members and hubs
  • NENA's new Board of Directors were elected at our AGM in November, and all their details will be available on the website next week
  • RECORDINGS NOW AVAILABLE!
  • WHAT'S HAPPENING NEXT YEAR? scroll down for a sneak-peek at some of our plans for 2022

Don't forget to become a NENA member - join our cooperative of fantastic people and organisations working to build a new, wellbeing economy, that's good for people and planet.
Happy holidays!
All the best
Michelle Maloney and Rhiannon Hardwick
