English term or phrase: senior councillor
Dat zieht sich hier wie Kaugummi. Habe den Eindruck das Dokument hat eine Eigendynamik entwickelt und je mehr ich oben übersetz, desto mehr wird unten wieder drangetextet. Anders kann das nicht sein ;-)

So, der ganze Satz im Kontext lautet:

We were aware of our rights to access information and we were fully skilled and equipped to play our role in the entire complex development process.
In collaboration with the local councillor, we called a village meeting and invited *senior councillors*.
In the meeting we expressed our desire to know why we weren’t benefitting from the on-going government programmes of income support and food security.

Es geht um Uganda und ein Programm zur Schulung von Freiwilligen in Bezug auf ihre Rechte (auf Information etc.) und wie sie das Gelernte danach umgesetzt haben.

Für local councillor habe ich *Gemeinderat* gefunden für den *senior councillor* allerdings nichts, was mich überzeugt hätte.
