The 33rd Annual General Meeting (AGM) takes place online to ensure that as many of NEMO's members as possible can participate in shaping the future of the network.

  • What happens at NEMO’s AGM? At the yearly meeting, NEMO member organisations gather to learn about the network's recent activities, progress and future plans. Additionally there is an election of members to the Executive Board.
  • Why should I join the AGM? To be part of steering the network, staying informed and making important decisions about NEMO’s future. Every member organisation’s voice and vote counts so please register now to join us!

On 7 October, please join the online AGM at 10:50 CEST to allow us enough time to check everyone off the registration list for a smooth meeting start at 11:00, ensuring that we can keep the agenda.

Elections to the NEMO Executive Board

There are a maximum of 7 seats on the Executive Board, of which 1 is open for the next term 2026-2028. The term for a board member is 3 years.

Board member and Chair Petra Havu will conclude her current term at the AGM 2025. She has expressed her willingness to serve a second term and is therefore standing for re-election.
