The minutes of the last FPAC meeting were then agreed and there were no matters arising.<\/p>\n<p>The reports from the Assistant Programme Directors and Friendship Link Coordinator had already been circulated to delegates, so it was a formality to accept them without amendment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soroptimist Alphabet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At 9.30, Programme Director Barbara Dixon presented the Soroptimist Alphabet, leading from the past 3A\u2019s (Awareness, Advocacy and Action) through the current emphasis on the 3E\u2019s (Educate, Empower, Enable) to the future UN vision of the 5Ps (People, Planet, Prosperity, Peace, Partnerships), which will contribute towards the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
