Circular Letter 2026/09
17 June 2026
Subject: Second half 2026 committee invitation and committee arrangements for first half 2027
To: Members and Sister Organizations
Dear members,
We are pleased to invite you to the next committee season.
Further information on the arrangements for each committee will be provided shortly. Some committees may begin with an online opening plenary before the in-person meeting, to allow more time for substantive work at Headquarters.
Please note that all physical meeting weeks will start on Monday morning.
Online participation will be available. However, based on experience, attendance in person for the full week at Headquarters remains the preferred format. Closing plenaries will be held online, normally during the week following the physical meeting.
The agreed dates for each committee are set out below:
Session Deadline input
