By Tony Nash, IAF Treasurer, CPF
Treasurer’s report for the year ended 31 December 2017.
The International Association of Facilitators (IAF) is solvent with cash and reserves in excess of US$150,000.00.
Financially, 2017 was another challenging year for the IAF. Total income before expenses for the year was US$533,925.49. Expenses after adjustments were $535,727.05, resulting in a small net deficit of $1,801.56.
Several factors contributed to this result:
Mirjami Sipponen-Damonte
Regional Director for Europe and Middle East
International Association of Facilitators - Hall of Fame Induction
Date: January 25, 2018
It has been an eventful year in IAF and, specifically, in the Africa region. Here are some of the highlights and updates from across the region:
Membership and Chapters
As we enter the year-end's festive season, it also marks the end of my time on the IAF Board as Chair. I have been on the Board since 2014, having first been Regional Director of Asia, then Vice-Chair, and then Chair for the past two years. These are my thoughts about where the IAF is and where it might be heading, as we enter into 2018 and beyond.
