Week Six - October 3rd, 2025
The GIS Indian Ambassador and her community kicked off their first coffee meet-up this week a wonderful opportunity to connect, share ideas, and socialize. Well done! We look forward to seeing more communities from different countries come together, and don’t forget to share your outing photos with GISPA!
📣 Calling All GIS Community Members! 🌍
We’re always looking to strengthen our community bonds and celebrate our diverse cultures. If you’re passionate about our mission and interested in representing your country, we’d love for you to consider becoming a Country Ambassador!
Please take a moment to check the Ambassadors File to see if your country is already represented — and join if you are not already a member. If your country isn’t represented, this could be your opportunity to step up and get involved!
If you’re interested or have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at gispa@gemsisak.com.
