Regions and district organisations
The Left Alliance consists of district organisations, which are geographically divided into five larger regions. These regions are led by executive directors. Their duties include coordinating the district’s activities and communications, liaising with local stakeholders and interest groups, and planning and implementing election campaigns. Each executive director is responsible for two or three district organisations.
