Digital meetings of CODIR and COEX - September 2020

Dear Members, Dear Friends,

As you already know, our annual meetings scheduled for 25 and 26 September 2020 were supposed to take place physically in Paris with virtual participation of those who cannot come.

Many of you have already signaled the impossibility to come to Paris due to travel restrictions in your countries. Moreover, in the recent weeks several governments issued recommendations advising against travelling to Paris given the COVID developments there. In view of that, it does not seem viable anymore to hold the meetings physically in Paris. For this reason and with great regret we are compelled to transform our annual meetings into fully digital format. In order to accommodate different time zones and to adapt to a fully digital setting, the timing of the meeting might be amended. You will receive information in that respect and technical instructions soon. 

We hope that we will be able to gather next year in Paris without problems. 

In the meantime, we send you our best wishes, 

John Vervaele (President)

Stanislaw Tosza (Secretary General)
