oikos International November Newsletter

Welcome to the November edition of our newsletter!

We have quite an eventful month behind us, but there's even more going on in the oikos Community in the upcoming period.

Over the last month, the NexGenLead program has taken the center stage. The event has ended, but it's still not over - there are learning opportunities with its resources at your disposal. We also announce the winners of this year's Case Writing Competition, along with the new oikos chapter opening. November has also seen a historic moment for oikos as we take the last steps of going fully remote.

There are Chapter Days ahead bringing together oikees from around the world, followed by the Legislative Meeting where chapters will elect the new oikos International Board Members. As always we are also happy to share with you exciting opportunities from our partners network.
