Legal Advisor Call

We are delighted to declare our call for Legal Advisors for the academic year 2020/21 officially open. You can apply until 27 September 2020, 23:59 CEST.

Our vision for this role is one person or a small group of persons working together to support EYP Austria in matters that demand a certain amount of legal expertise. This support would mainly consist of small legal research projects whenever EYP Austria finds itself in a situation where greater legal clarity is required. This is an excellent opportunity for Members with expertise in the legal field to secure and shape – and gain valuable insights into – the legal framework of EYP Austria.

We’re looking forward to your applications!

PBM#1 Report

During each board term, the Board of EYP Austria meets several times to discuss important matters in person, with the Advisory Board also typically attending to some degree for guidance.

For each of these Physical Board Meetings (PBMs), a report is compiled to inform our Members of the subjects talked about there, as well as the results of modules that will have a concrete impact on the organisation. So make sure to check out the report of our first PBM which took place in July to get an insight into the happenings of the Board and EYP Austria at large!
