Being part of the Board offers an opportunity to develop new skills, gain valuable experience in advocacy, leadership, and teamwork, and build new friendships and professional networks. Board Members also receive ECTS credits and financial compensation for their work. What matters most is motivation, a willingness to learn, and enthusiasm for working together.
