Positions Open for Election:

The incoming board will also appoint a web administrator. Additionally, specific members or appointed Directors will oversee critical portfolios including Academy, Young Skal, Art and Culture, Tour Guides, Airlines, Sustainable Tourism (including Awards), Technology and Startups, and the organization of the Annual General Assembly (AGA) for the years 2024 and 2025. During their tenure, new topics may also emerge, and volunteers from clubs or national committees are encouraged to participate or contribute in their various capacities.

Given that Skal Europe operates without a budget, the role of Treasurer may encompass coordinating the Board fundraising activities, including seeking support from sponsors and voluntary contributions from Clubs and National Committees. In the event of such funds, auditors will play a crucial role in certifying the accounts for the benefit of the membership, the Board, and the sponsors. However, it’s important to note that auditors will focus primarily on the specific areas they applied for (such as IT, special projects, etc.).
