UNITE: A Digital Event is all about coming together with your local government peers for a common purpose, to share your personal and professional experiences, and to connect. As we look to create an entirely new digital experience this September 23-26, we’re offering opportunities to every local government professional to UNITE before the digital event takes place this fall.
Here are a few ways you can #UNITELocalGov before September:
UNITE: A Digital Event Facebook Group
Connecting and learning from your peers is more important than ever, that’s why we’ve started the UNITE: A Digital Event Facebook Group. This is our destination for conversation and inspiration for those who want to UNITE now and can’t wait for September.
Group Includes:
- Weekly icebreakers and polls
- ICMA Office Hours (ask ICMA staff event-related questions)
- Connecting with your peers
Share Your Local Government Story
We're committed to sharing unique perspectives from our attendees and look forward to learning more about how you've been protecting, supporting, and leading your communities through a series of crises over the past few months. Did your community develop something innovative during the pandemic? Have an interesting take on resilient leadership? Share your story for an opportunity to be highlighted on our UNITE blog by emailing Paloma Ferreira, ICMA event marketing coordinator, to participate.
Participate in Our Podcast Series
We want to UNITE with you! Interested in taking part in our new podcast series, UNITE Discussions? We’ll be covering the following topics from July to September and welcome your participation in a discussion with your local government peers: Budget and Finance; Civic Health and Cohesion; Emergency Management; Equity and Inclusion; Futurism-Innovation-Technology; Resilience; and Leadership. Make your voice heard by emailing Samantha Wagner, ICMA senior manager, marketing, to participate.
We look forward to UNITING with you!
