Dear ICAR Member Delegates
End of March 2020, the registration for ICAR 2020 Greece was
just about ready to be launched, when the COVID-19 pandemic started
to change everything around the globe. Since then our Greek Hosts
(HRT), their PCO (Professional Congress Organizer) Erasmus, the
Venue and the ICAR Executive Board have been in close contact to
monitor the dynamic developments and seek for possible solutions.
It then became obvious, that the impact of the global pandemic
(social distancing, meeting and travel restrictions, lack of flight
availability, quarantine, etc.) will last and go beyond 2020.
Thanks to the flexibility of all involved, high cancellation
penalties could be avoided and the remaining uncovered cost kept
limited. The decisions made take all of this into
account.
The ICAR Assembly of Delegates 2020 is cancelled.
The 2019 and 2020 financial years are declared to be a
long-term year. The double year does not count for the years of
membership on the ICAR Executive Board. All current ICAR Executive
Board Members and ICAR Auditors remain in office until October
2021, when the next ICAR Assembly of Delegates will take place. The
ICAR Executive Board will then report on the annual accounts, the
balance sheet and the auditors report with discharge. New elections
(2020 would have been an ordinary election year) and the admission
of new members type A, B1/B2 and D (requiring the approval of the
ICAR Assembly of Delegates) are postponed to October
2021.
Thank you all for your support and understanding. May you,
your family members and your fellow friends stay healthy in these
challenging times. With very kind regards
The ICAR Executive Board
