Once per year the board renders account on the business of the study group (annual report and annual statement of accounts). The members can accept or decline the management of the board at the general meeting. Furthermore they may elect a new board and execute or improve important business matters. The general meetings are intended to be meetings in presence, and they have to be announced in due time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Our General Meeting took place on 25 October 2024 in Ulm, when all business could be settled without negative surprises. The Study group could elect the members of the board for the next period 2024\/10 to 2027\/10.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The board tries to organise the meeting at a place which is attractive for the members, if possible in connection to a philatelic exhibition. The business part of the general meeting should only require a small part of the event; philatelic lectures, combined with cultural and social events should be more important. The next meetings should generally be announced early in the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our 46th symposium is scheduled to take place on 17 July 2026. Attendance at the symposia in recent years has been modest, so we have decided to hold the event in Germany again. In our opinion, BEPHILA 2026 is an attractive choice. However, we must consider resizing or completely omitting this fixed programme item, \u2018Holding a symposium\u2019, which has been a feature of the last decades. ARGE members will be asked to comment on this in the February 2026 member letter. The results of the evaluations will be discussed at the symposium. Further details on the BEPHILA 2026 programme will be posted on the \u2018More about us\u2019 page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"974\" src=\"https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-1024x974.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-1024x974.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-300x285.jpg 300w, https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-768x731.jpg 768w, https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-1536x1461.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1-1568x1492.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/arge-rumaenien.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/bephila-Bild-1.jpg 1968w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">EPSON MFP image<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-extra-large-font-size\"><strong>Contacts \/ the board<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>President:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Heinz Gl\u00e4ttli, CH-4132 Muttenz (Schweiz), Gartenstrasse 61<br><a href=\"mailto:glaettli.muttenz@bluewin.ch\">glaettli.muttenz@bluewin.ch<\/a><br>Tel. +41 61 462 02 53<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vice &#8211; president:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Walter Heinz Wagner, D-52068 Aachen, Katharinenstrasse 18a<br><a href=\"mailto:info@wahewa.de\">info@wahewa.de<\/a><br>Tel. +49-2415 548 30<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary:<br>Thomas F\u00e4ger, D-81547 M\u00fcnchen, Fromundstrasse 45<br>tfmuenchen (at) yahoo.de<br>Tel. +49 174 41 59 599<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Webmaster: Heinz Gl\u00e4ttli<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-extra-large-font-size\"><strong>Contacts for persons speaking Romanian<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heinz Gl\u00e4ttli is pleased to be contacted.
