Programme Action Officers from Soroptimist clubs throughout South Lancashire Region converged on Southport for their annual meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Programme<\/a>
Sue Biggs with (L) Region President Margaret Baker and (R) Margaret Molyneux, Region Programme Action Officer<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Guest speaker was Sue Biggs who has just completed her term of office as Federation Programme Director. Drawing on her four years\u2019 experience, Sue spoke in particular about the United Nations\u2019 CSW (Commission on the Status of Women) sessions that she has attended in New York. <\/span><\/p>\n

Our own Federation\u00a0– Soroptimist International, Great Britain and Ireland (SIGBI<\/a>)\u00a0– has special consultative status with the UN\u2019s Economic and Social Council. This status provides non-governmental organisations (NGOs) such as ourselves with access to UN sessions, lobbying opportunities\u00a0and special events – such\u00a0as CSW – particularly centred on women.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sue spoke about the emerging emphasis on advocacy for Soroptimist International <\/a>itself. This will be played\u00a0out on the global level. She also\u00a0outlined the 2015-19 eight-point Programme Focus, which will guide practical work\u00a0\u2018on the ground\u2019 by Soroptimists in the four Federations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Margaret Molyneux, Region Programme Action Officer \u2013 who convened the meeting \u2013 led the delegates in wide-ranging discussions on projects being carried out by members.\u00a0They also looked at\u00a0ways in which Programme can be kept at the heart of Soroptimist club life.\u00a0This open forum\u00a0is always an excellent opportunity for the exchange of best-practice ideas.<\/span><\/p>\n

The delegates also heard from Pat Williams, Region Membership Officer, on the importance of service projects in attracting potential members; and from Jenny Stanistreet, Region Web Administrator, on the why? and how? of websites in supporting programme work.<\/span><\/p>\n
