From countries all over Europe and even from other continents, the

The General Assembly 2024 of EURAO was held the first Thursday of July via internet, after a previous informal contact in Friedrichshafen the weekend before.
The minutes of this meeting are now available to all member associations in the archive section of our website.
At the proposal of its Board, the EURAO Assembly
decided to support the M17 project with a modest donation.
