UNEP FI holds AGMs-by-webinar a few weeks ahead of the AGMs-in-person. This allows us to discuss administrative and governance issues so that the in-person meetings can focus on more substantive and programmatic discussions. This year’s AGM-by-Webinar was held on Thursday 7 November 2019 at the following times. Please note that the two sessions were identical to cater for different time zones.

  1. 08:00-09:00 Central European Time – Chaired by Jacki Johnson, UNEP FI Global Steering Committee (GSC) member and GSC Advisor for Budgeting & Financial Reporting.
  2. 16:00-17:00 Central European Time – Chaired by Toni Ballabriga, Co-Chair of the UNEP FI Global Steering Committee.

In-person: 8:20-9:30, Friday 29 November 2019 | European Convention Center Luxembourg (ECCL), Luxembourg (held at the European Regional Roundtable)
