GLOBAL COUNCILS
Introduction & Concept |
|
In 2005 the IH&RA set up a series of Global Councils that meet in a “virtual” setting twice a year in order to provide expert opinions on the issues from a global perspective.
These Councils:
- Formulate positions on the issues at hand
- Introduce new issues for resolution
- Formulate pro-active strategies to ensure that IH&RA interests are considered & protected
The prime purpose of these Councils is to provide Global input into the IH&RA so that the voice & message that is delivered to the International organizations & agencies is relevant, current, and up to date and reflects the interest of our hotel & restaurant industry members.
The members of the Global Council are identified by IH&RA’s Chain and National Association members and NACE members who serve on these panels for determined persiods of time.
A closed section is dedicated to each of the Global Councils on this website, accessed only by members of the Councils.
The IH&RA acts as the coordinator for the meetings and prepares agendas; minutes/resolutions as requested by each Council plus, then acts as the “presenter” of the Councils views at the appropriate international agencies.
