There was a lot of fun, but a lot of work, too. The Supervisory Board will shortly prepare the full report upon this GA. For everyone who couldn’t come to Ghent we reveal some decisions adopted by the GA.
We elected 5 new Supervisory Board members for the year 2009:
· Sytze Braaksma (Netherlands)
· Aliki Eleni Darzentas (Greece)
· Agnija Kazuša (Latvia)
· Nicolas Naets (Belgium)
· Stefanie Sirén (Finland)
The 25th FEJS Annual Congress will be organized by FEJS Slovenia in 2010.
The Chairperson will be head of FEJS Slovenia Jaka Benedičič.

The Supervisory Board congratulates to all newly elected FEJSers. We wish you all the best and good luck with your new duties.
