How does the association exactly function?

If you want all the details about the rules according to which the association works and can read french, we suggest you go through the statutes carefully (and more than once). However, if you just want a simple explanation without going in too much detail read on.

ADEA is directed by a team, the so-called comitee, which is elected by the general assembly to take care of the association. A general assembly is held at least every year. During this gathering, the association's member elect the comitee and approve the financial accounts of the past year.
