Club Presidents Survey – 2023

Dear Club President,

The Zonta Says NOW to Gender-Equal Climate Action Working Group needs your help.

We are developing various resources for individual Zontians, Zonta clubs and Zonta districts to implement the actions described in the Zonta International Statement on Climate Change.

We need to know your ideas and concerns about this global challenge so that we can develop resources that are useful and accessible.

This survey is designed for Club Presidents to complete and submit. Presidents may delegate this task to another member if required.

The survey results will be analysed, and a summary of the key findings will be shared with all members.

The survey will take about 5-10 minutes to complete. The survey closes on [31 August 2023].

Thank you for your support.
