Executive Committee members are individuals, who are permanent representatives of Board member organisations.

The Executive Committee is composed by the President, two Vice

One of the two Vice presidents will be a representative of a National
Council of disabled people and the other will be a representative from a
European NGO of disabled people. The Secretary and the Treasurer will
