Should you wish to apply for one of the positions or nominate another member, please send us an informal written application by e-mail, fax or post. Please send the application with a signed declaration of consent to stand for election to the EWA office or to the EWA board.

Please note that applications for the election of the Executive Board and Advisory Board as well as motions for the agenda must be received by the Executive Board or the management 14 days before the General Assembly at the latest, in accordance with the statutes. Resolutions on applications received later can only be passed if the General Assembly agrees to put the application on the agenda (§ 10, paragraph 1 of the EWA Statutes). For motions to amend the statutes, § 11, paragraph 3 of the statutes of the EWA applies. So-called initiative motions concerning the contents of the meeting, which do not entail a change of the agenda or statutes, can be made at any time during the meeting.

The documents required for the general meeting (annual report, amendments to the statutes, draft budget, etc.) will be sent to you by mail in good time from the event. Registration for the General Assembly is not required. Following the General Assembly, a festive dinner with presentation of the EWA Awards 2020/2021 is planned at KölnSky. A separate invitation will be sent out for this. You can register by clicking on the button "EWA Dinner at KölnSky" in the "Events" section of our website.

We look forward to welcoming as many of you as possible to our general meeting!
