Executive Committee

Aim: to shape and guide IFEAT’s strategic direction, ensuring the Federation evolves in line with its values and purpose. This includes reviewing aims, committee structures, legal matters, and creating key documentation to support effective governance.

Goal: to focus on setting clear objectives across short, medium, and long-term horizons, supporting smooth operations, and maintaining a dynamic vision. We ensure all activity — from staff to strategy — is aligned and delivered with purpose.
