Published on Saturday July 24th, 2021. 

The ICA Committee calls for the Anual General Meeting (AGM) for 2021 on Sunday October 3rd, 2021 at 08:00 UTC  by means of a video conference. Meeting details will be announced later.

Travel restriction due to the pandemic led to the cancelation of the 2020 and 2021 Worlds events.

The preliminary agenda is as follows:

  1. Opening

  3. Previous Minutes
  4. Matters Arising
  5. Presidents Report.
  6. Treasurers Report.
