General assembly

Where VNPL's direction is set — by and for the community

What is this

The body that shapes our future

The general assembly is not a formality. It is the mechanism through which VNPL remains accountable to its members. Decisions made here carry formal weight — from budget approvals to constitutional amendments.

The annual general assembly is VNPL's primary democratic forum — where members review the year, debate priorities, elect leadership, and formally shape the organization's future.

  • Electing and confirming executive board members
  • Reviewing annual reports and financial statements
  • Voting on constitutional or rule amendments
  • Setting strategic priorities for the year ahead
