Description

The Countdown to GDPR is on ... 25th May is fast approaching

Our upcoming Dublin City Volunteer Managers' Network meeting on 8th March will focus on GDPR. Join us for coffee and networking, while having all your data protection questions answered!

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) significantly increases the obligations and responsibilities for organisations in how we collect, use and protect personal data. We will have to be fully transparent about how we are using and safeguarding personal data, and be able to demonstrate accountability for their data processing activities.

Dorothy Barry will give an overview of the new regulations, highlighting key changes to the existing data protection framework, as well as the practical implications for Not for Profits. She will clarify the key tasks involved in getting GDPR ready.

Dorothy Barry is Principal of DMBarry & Associates Management Consultants with a client base in the public and not-for-profit sectors. In 2018, her focus is on assisting clients with preparations for the new Data Protection requirements of GDPR.



Dublin City Volunteer Managers Network

The Network is an opportunity to meet like-minded volunteer coordinators, exchange experiences, seek advice and ultimately help you build and maintain a high quality volunteer programme.
Volunteer management can be very rewarding and hugely beneficial for the wider community, but we also know that there are plenty of challenges volunteer managers have to face on a daily basis. The Network is a relaxed and informal atmosphere, where you can openly talk about volunteer management and get ideas from ourselves and other volunteer coordinators.

What you can expect:

  • Opportunity to meet other Volunteer Managers and hear about their experiences
  • Get some creative ideas on how to make your volunteer programme even better
  • Meet the Volunteer Centre team and find out about the services we offer
  • Enjoy a morning cuppa!

Venue

The Volunteer Managers' Network will be taking place on the second floor of the Volunteer Centre and there is no lift access. Directions and transport details here
