At its 6th meeting, the AVOLA Board approved the 2026 budget, evaluated new projects and, in particular, dealt intensively with the 2nd Symposium, which will take place on 16 October 2026 in the Kursaal in Bern. For the first time, Dr. Raman Preet (SWE-Umea) represented the interests of the Associate Board and was warmly welcomed as a permanent liaison member of the Board. A lot of energy was also invested in strategy discussion, especially on the question of how we want to convince future donors of the benefits that AVOLA generates in society.
