# IX. DISSOLUTION

The dissolution of the GFMD may take place at a [General Assembly](https://strategy.gfmd.info/documents/constitution/general-assembly) meeting or a special general meeting called for that purpose upon the tabling of a motion to that effect and its adoption by at least two-thirds majority vote of the members present and voting. 

Notice of a dissolution motion shall normally be given at least 45 days in advance, provided that the [Steering Committee](https://strategy.gfmd.info/documents/constitution/steering-committee) may approve a shorter period of notice with cause. 

In the event that the membership votes to dissolve the GFMD, all liabilities of the GFMD shall be discharged and any remaining assets shall be transferred to an organisation with a similar mission upon the decision of the [General Assembly.](https://strategy.gfmd.info/documents/constitution/general-assembly)
