Description

Traditionally, IGFSA holds its General Assembly during the annual IGF meeting. It is IGFSA's annual general meeting and opportunity for its members to catch up and the exchange views how best to further the objectives of the Association. It is also an opportunity to recruit new members. Anyone who is interested in the Association's objectives is welcome to attend the meeting.

All participants, whether IGFSA members or not, are encouraged to ask for the floor and comment on each agenda item. The agenda and supporting documents (budget, annual report etc) will be made available well ahead of the meeting. Only IGFSA members who are in good standing, that is members who have paid their annual membership dues, are allowed to vote and stand for election.
