COMMUNITY
The Beijing Energy Network community includes everyone who supports BEN's projects by organizing or attending events and contributing to our inclusive, collaborative environment.
Educate
Interested in presenting on your organization or work? Send us your name, organization, position, 2-3 sentences about your proposed topic, and any materials that might be helpful to explain your work. We’ll get back to you as soon as possible and work with you to prepare and publicize the event!
Please note that we will only consider topics within the cross-section of China and the environment. However, speakers are not required to be experts! The original BEN circle started out with early career professionals and students.
Volunteer
Volunteers of all ages and backgrounds are welcome and encouraged to give as much or as little time as they can – It’s a great way to practice skills in event planning, design, public speaking, and publicity. Organizer meetings are held once a month on Monday evenings.
The team is led by the acting BEN Director, who is selected by the previous BEN Directors from among the active volunteers.
