Hello everyone,
I’m happy to announce that we have the new Reps Regional Coaches.
We have selected 1-2 coaches per region so they can work together in this important role. During the next weeks they will be doing an initial research on the different communities in their region and after an orientation call they will start meeting some of them.
We changed a bit the initial list of regions to accommodate cultural differences and avoid having groups with too many big communities, the updated list is:
- Region 1: USA, Canada
- Region 2: Mexico, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, Argentina, Cuba
- Region 3: Ireland, UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Lithuania, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Czech Republic.
- Region 4: Hungary, Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, Romania, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Ukraine, Russia, Israel
- Region 5: Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Palestine, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Iran
- Region 6: Cameroon, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana
- Region 7: Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Madagascar, Mauritius, Zimbabwe, Botswana
