The Charter is integrally made up of both core images and text. The base text is in English with French and Spanish translation, as well as in 15 other languages used in the International Federation. There are initially two ‘more accessible’ versions available – one with simplified text and drawings alongside the core text & images; and one with blank space alongside the core images & text, in which each Community can add their own images and photographs.

Please note that the test vote will be open until June 11th.

This will help you familiarize yourself with the platform and check that everything works well. To do the test vote, please go to vote.associationvoting.com/larche/ and follow the instructions. The test vote will not affect the results of the actual voting in any way.

If you have any problems or questions regarding the voting procedures, please write to assembly2023@larche.org. We will be happy to assist you. Thank you for your participation and commitment to L’Arche. We look forward to connecting with you at the Federation Assembly 2023.
