FOKO is an active branch of the EPEA and will at the conference elect two members as Liaison Persons for the EPEA. The Chair of FOKO Hilde Larsen and FOKO Secretary Paal Brevik are seeking reelection.
The EPEA embrace the wish of FOKO to be more close to the EPEA and use the EPEA resources more, like using the EPEA website for publishing activities and inviting key persons in EPEA to their events.
