ADEK
International, the Association of
former trainees of the European Union, was formed in 1966 in
order to
create a network of solidarity among former stagiaires
of all institutions of the European Communities (European Union).
The
Association's raison d'être is to maintain a
network of solidarity between members; to keep a permanent
dialogue between our members and the European Institutions, and
to promote
the central values that underpin the
European integration project.
ADEK
International currently has thousands of members from all over the world;
each with varied careers, hobbies, interests and views, and all
bonded by their different yet shared experiences of an
institutional traineeship.
ADEK
International keeps in contact with its members through its publications,
such as the monthly editions of
its Newsletter, through a series of varied
activities and
events, and through regular electronic and postal communication.
New methods of communicating to our members are also under
development, not least our plans for the new ADEK International
dynamic
website!
The ADEK Secretariat
is
in charge of the implementation of ADEK International's work programme and remains a physical link between members, the
ADEK International Executive
Board and current stagiaires. The office is permanently
staffed by two European Commission stagiaires, presently
James Hughes and Loren Lesko.
The ADEK International
Executive Board remains at the heart of the Association, co-ordinating
current activities, and the direction of your network. It
consists of a small group of ADEK members, elected to serve
your interests.
Following a recent election of
a new Executive Board, the Board consists of the following
officers!
