The organization is independent of the EU Delegation, but coordinates with it on activities and fundraising. Due to COVID pandemic and a change in the Head of the Delegation, fundraising activities were limited for the past few years. The EU Delegation has a new head, and she is working with the organization to raise funds and increase activities. New directors have been added, an Honorary Board has been formed, and an Executive Director has been retained, all designed to increase fundraising and activities. |
