person who calls a meeting
A person who officially brings people together for a meeting or group and helps organize it.
Padrão de uso:
[someone] is the convener of [a meeting/committee]
Erro comum:
Learners sometimes confuse 'convener' with the verb 'convene'. 'Convener' is a noun for the person, while 'to convene' is the action of calling people together. Another common mistake is using 'convener' for any leader; in many contexts, the 'chair' or 'chairperson' leads the meeting, and the 'convener' is specifically the person who officially calls or organizes it.
Sinônimos

chairperson (Focuses more on leading and managing the meeting rather than on calling it together.)
|
coordinator (Emphasizes arranging details and communication, sometimes less formal or less official than a convener.)
Antônimos
attendee (An attendee only takes part in a meeting, while a convener is responsible for calling and organizing it.)
|
participant (A participant joins an activity or meeting but does not have the official duty to convene it.)
