Agora is the biggest biannual event where important issues related to our European student organisation, AEGEE are decided.

The Spring Agora 2014 took place in Patra, Greece between 30.04.2014 and 05.05.2014. Even before starting, this Agora got a nickname “Popcorn Agora”. Why? In this Agora, as in every spring Agora, the delegates voted upon the new Comité Directeur for AEGEE. And most expected voting was (of course) the voting of the new President of AEGEE-Europe.

The Spring Agora 2013 was held from 3rd till 7th of April in a small university city in Germany - in Mannheim.

This year European Boards Meeting (EBM) was held in Izmir 9th to 12th of February. Izmir is a coastal city in Turkey known as holiday paradise in the summer. This time we visited Izmir the coldest time of the year so unfortunately we couldn't enjoy the beach. Actually there was even snow in Istanbul!
