Welcome and thank you for joining us as a leader in Democrats Abroad!

...

Let us know your meeting results
As a new leader, one of your first responsibilities is to send your country committee's Annual General Meeting minutes and election results to the International Secretary (secretary@democratsabroad.org) and Regional RVC. You have two weeks to email those in, but we are always happy to hear from you sooner (smile). Be sure to send in contact details about everyone on your executive committee.
