Join the BarBichette Board
Are you interested in joining BarBichette’s core team as a Board member? Then read more below!
BarBichette’s community is growing and with this, we’re looking for new people to join our feminist team on the Board of BarBichette!
The Board of BarBichette is responsible for coordinating the ongoing activities and strategy of BarBichette, and ensuring our community is a true co-created space with and for our members.
We have a few seats on the Board so there is opportunity for two to three people to join the team for this election on 16 June. You should be a full member of BarBichette to be eligible for elections, but you can join as a full member now if you are not part of our community yet!
See all info below, including the application process, and feel free to reach out to Board member Daniela for a chat if you wish at daniela@barbichette.org
About the Board elections
The elections will take place at our AGM on 16 June 2024 from 16:00 to 19:00 at Cafe Merlo in Brussels.
The Board is elected by full members of BarBichette as per our Statutes.
There are currently two to three seats available on the Board, so you could join Daniela, Emre, Gail and Stephanie to finish their current mandate until June 2025. Not all seats have to be filled but we'd love to have more people joining our feminist team!
As per BarBichette's Statutes, only full members can stand for the Board. So if you are not part of our community yet but you are interested, please contact us as soon as possible at daniela@barbichette.org or any other current board member
Make sure to be familiar with our by-laws/Statutes and Membership Charter.
As a BarBichette, we are committed to recruit people from marginalised backgrounds, including but not limited to: women, non binary and transgender persons, people of colour, people from the global majority, people with disabilities, people from less privileged socio-economic backgrounds, queer people, young people or people from any historically marginalised backgrounds.
