National Adult Literacy Agency (NALA) Annual General Meeting 2023

Ashling Hotel, Dublin: Saturday 13 May 2023, 11am – 1pm

We are delighted to invite our members to NALA’s 2023 Annual General Meeting (AGM).

It is taking place on Saturday 13 May 2023 at 11am in the Ashling Hotel, Parkgate Street, Dublin 8, D08 P38N.  As this is our first in person AGM in 3 years we do hope you can join us for the event, followed by a light lunch.

Our AGM will be an ideal opportunity for you to:

  • hear from Yvonne McKenna, Director of the Adult Literacy for Life (ALL) Programme Office, about the progress and plans for the ALL Strategy;
  • hear all that was achieved in 2022; and
  • discuss what you want NALA to concentrate on in 2023 and beyond.

Would you like to join our Board?

This year we have a number of positions on our Board that need to be filled by election of existing or new Directors and Officers. The Board provides essential leadership to NALA and ensures that our vision, mission and values are promoted, advanced and achieved.

So, if you believe ‘literacy is a human right’ and want to see it realised, we would encourage you to nominate Members who have the time and willingness to serve as a Director or Officer on NALA’s Board. This year we have the following vacancies on the Board:

  • A maximum of 2 Directors
  • Vice-Chairperson
  • Honorary Treasurer

All nominations must be received by NALA no later than 13 April 2023. Any nominations received after this date cannot be accepted.
