IAU 13th General Conference
IAU at UTRECHT
15 - 18 July 2008
IAU Business SessionsThe General Conference, is the Supreme Decision-Making body of the IAU. During the Business Sessions, which form an integral part of the General Conference, and which are open to all participants, IAU Members in good standing take stock of the Association’s achievements (see: IAU Report of activities 2004-2008), set or adjust the strategy for the future (see: IAU Programme 2008-2012), review and discuss key statutory documents that are submitted for approval. During these Sessions, the Election process is explained and voting takes place for the IAU President and members of the Administrative Board. It is also the exclusive right of the General Conference to adopt any Policy Statements or issue Declarations of Principle of the Association. These then serve as advocacy platforms for the IAU and often structure new projects and initiatives. At the 13th General Conference, a draft Policy Statement entitled Equitable Access, Success and Quality in Higher Education will be submitted for review and approval. There will be three Business Sessions organized at the 13th General Conference as follows:
