ECON General Assembly is an international convening of ECON members from across Europe. Each year the members gather for a combination of networking, learning, and organizational decision-making like voting on new members and electing the board. The Assembly is a space where ECON members can dig deep into the specific questions that shape or craft, and to develop the capacities of our network to achieve ever-more ambitious goals.
Past assemblies have featured learning exchanges on scaling-up our organizing, fundraising, political action, and incorporating anti-racism practice into our work. We have also used the time together to sharpen our network’s strategic focus, and to develop the outlines of a fundraising strategy to support the European community organizing sector.
ECON is a hub for the community organizing movement in Europe. We support organizers, groups and organizations to build collective power to respond to systemic injustices and emerging crises and create a just and democratic future for all
