GreenFacts' Full Members

General Assembly 2006Our Full Members ("Membres Effectifs") are the voting members of our association. They meet at least once a year for the General Assembly, which has the ultimate controlling powers over the Association and notably elects the Directors among its members.

Full Members are individuals acting in a personal capacity. They are classified into four groups, depending on their activities in the environment and health fields: "science", "environment", "industry" and "other". Each group enjoys similar voting rights in both the Board of Directors and the General Assembly, so that no single group can control the organization.

For more information, see our Statutes, notably Art. 4 to 18.
