Eurovent Commission

The Eurovent Commission is one of the association’s decision-making bodies, consisting of staff members of Eurovent’s national Member Associations. Its key tasks, as opposed to other decision-making bodies, are to coordinate among national Member Associations and to develop guiding positions and documents.

The Eurovent Commission elects a Chairperson for a three-year term and appoints a Vice-Chairperson for a one-year term according to a rotating schedule. Both are automatically members of the Eurovent Board.
