FOSSUK Event

The posponed 2020 AGM of the Federation of Swiss Societies UK (FOSSUK) took place online,
on Saturday 12th December 2020 from 11am to 1pm.

We encouraged the wider Swiss community in the UK to attend, although only FOSSUK members are able to vote and ratify decisions during the formal AGM. 

Due to the restrictions on travel and the vulnerability of some of our members during the Covid-19 pandemic in the UK, the AGM took place via an interactive Zoom meeting - instructions and details were shared with registered attendees prior to the meeting. 

The Ambassador Monsieur Alexandre Fasel will dial in for a personal welcome and to say a few words to the community at the start of the AGM. After the official business, we will show a slideshow of how the Swiss Community have stayed connected this year and outline the 2021 elections of UK Delegates to the Council of Swiss Abroad (CSA).

The revised format AGM took place 2 parts:

11AM

Introduction by Ambassador Fasel

CSA Elections 2021 [how to become a delegate, how voting will work]

1PM Swiss Community Spirit [a look back this year]
