General Assembly

The General Assembly is your chance to shape the future of the EMAlumni Association! Each year, all supportive members are invited to join our annual democratic forum to hear about the Board’s activities, review financial reports, and discuss the association’s goals and direction. Full (supportive) members have the power to vote on major changes affecting our operation and direction, and can vote and be elected to the Board.

Board members are the driving force behind the association’s management and operations. They actively participate in discussions, strategise how to achieve our goals, and lead initiatives like workshops, campaigns, career days, or fundraising efforts. It’s a two-year voluntary commitment.
