You are invited to attend Cochrane's 2022 Annual General Meeting
As part of its legal constitution as a charity, Cochrane holds a public Annual General Meeting (AGM) once a year. The AGM provides an opportunity for Cochrane's Trustees - its Governing Board - and senior officers to tell you about the management, finances, and strategic priorities of the organization. You can ask questions on these topics, and you can vote on certain aspects ("Resolutions") concerning the constitution and management of the charity.
The 2022 AGM will take place online and in-person on:
- Monday 17th October
- 18.30-20.00 GMT+2 (View in your time zone)
- On-line: Register in advance
- In-person: There are a limited number of in-person spaces available and priority will be given to attendees at the Iberoamerican Conference, happening in Barcelona, Spain. If you wish to attend in person, please contact support@cochrane.org and your request will be considered.
Vote on Resolutions
The Resolutions being put to the vote at the AGM are set out below for ease of reference. All Cochrane members as defined by the Membership Terms & Conditions are entitled to vote on AGM Resolutions. Voting is now officially open and will remain open until midway through the AGM on 17 October 2022. Results will be announced at the end of the meeting.
Proposed Resolutions:
- To approve the Minutes from the last Annual General Meeting, held on 27 October 2021.
- To receive and note the Trustees’ Report and Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.
