Call for Annual Congress 2027 Organisers
Dear entities,
This year’s Annual Congress in Ewhurst, England, is slowly approaching. This also means the time has come to find a motivated Orgateam for AC 27!
With this email, we are officially opening the Call for applications for Annual Congress 2027!
WHAT IS THE EGEA ANNUAL CONGRESS?
- Annual Congress (AC) is the biggest and most important event in the EGEA year, organised for at least 150 participants (excluding the orgateam). The congress takes place in September and is an opportunity to get to know new EGEAns and meet old friends.
- The main reason we organise the AC is to hold the Annual Meeting of the General Assembly (GA), where representatives from all entities come together to make decisions in our association. During the GA sessions, we approve the new Board, RCPs and other EGEA officials.
- The AC also holds Regional Meetings (RMs) – official meetings of EGEA regions led by the Regional Teams. Regional meetings at the AC serve to discuss proposals, sum up the EGEA year, present entity updates and promote events.
- But it is not all formal business! There is always an exciting scientific, leisure and event program with excursions, workshops, trainings, cultural events and more fun opportunities to socialise and experience the hosting country
- For more details, check the EGEA Protocol (Article 6)!
WHY SHOULD YOU APPLY?
- Create an unforgettable event for your EGEA friends
- Master teamwork and improve event organising
- Introduce EGEAns from all around Europe to your region and culture
- Help EGEA grow
- Make friends for a lifetime
- Get support from the EGEA Event Advisor and the whole association

- Struggling to find the perfect theme? EGEA’s Theme Year of 2027 is Birthplace Lottery, which can give you plenty of ideas to plan the topic or activities in your AC 27 application!
