Mandate: To improve the effectiveness, alignment, and collaboration of BC’s wine grape industry organizations by assessing structures, clarifying mandates, and building coordinated capacity to better serve the entire sector.
Within the working groups, we have two opportunities to participate:
- Working Group Member:
Each working group will have between 6 and 10 Members. These individuals will attend regular meetings and help shape and deliver key priorities and projects. They’ll also track progress, respond to emerging issues, and ensure sustainability, inclusion, and knowledge sharing are built into all group activities. - Working Group Community:
This is an open group with unlimited seats for those who want to stay informed, engaged and contribute their knowledge. Community Members will receive early updates, be invited to provide feedback on draft ideas, and help guide the group’s direction through ongoing engagement.
Working Group Responsibilities:
- Attend and actively participate in working group meetings (quarterly minimum).
- Contribute to the identification, development, and delivery of key strategic priorities.
- The Advisory Committee will approve strategic priorities, project budgets, and deliverables recommended by each group. Where strategic overlaps occur, groups will coordinate with one another to ensure aligned implementation.
- Develop and maintain a tactical action plan along with key metrics for tracking success.
- Implement Working Group projects, as approved by the Advisory Committee
- Embed sustainability, DEIA, and knowledge transfer into all activities.
