We need your input on FIG Governance - Member Consultation 2020
FIG Task Force on Governance, June-July 2020
Now it is your time to influence the future of FIG - we ask you to
watch the two videos and send your comments
The Task Force on the Future Governance of FIG is an internal
Task Force focusing on an evaluation and proposal of potential
changes of the current FIG Governance. The task force was
established in 2019. Chaired by Vice President Diane Dumashie,
it draws upon the work from earlier Task Forces, including the
Task Force on Commission Structure.
The task force had planned to present a resume of the
findings at the General Assembly 2020 for discussions first at
the General Assembly, and hereafter at a special roundtable
session. The General Assembly 2020 was unfortunately postponed
due to the COVID19 pandemic, but the task force work continues,
and the aim is still to present the final outcome to the General
Assembly 2021.
Now, the Task Force asks for your contribution and input.
This is your chance to influence the future of FIG...
The feedback received, and all the information
gleaned from the consultations thus far, will result in a report with
options for Council/ General Assembly.
Two video presentations have been prepared for you:
The first video presentation is a report and summary of the work that
has been undertaken so far by the task force. This presentation is held
by the chair of the task force, FIG Vice President Diane Dumashie.
The second video presentation is presenting seven Key Issues. Each of
these Key Issues were planed to be discussed at the roundtable sessions. Instead
Diane Dumashie, together with Pekka Halme, member of the task force,
introduce you to the seven Key Issues. Follow the video presentation, as
Diane and Pekka will instruct you on what and how they need your input.
Throughout the presentation asks
for your comments, reflections and constructive critique.

If smaller groups of members are interested in a further consultation
online and to have a discussion/questions, this can be arranged with
Diane during July.

expectations for the areas of review
To respond to the 7 key issues with your views

To highlight if there is a major element in our thinking
that is being missed
please note that you may request a small group webinar

gleaned from the consultations thus far, we will be drafting
a report with options for Council/General Assembly
