An Introduction to the Vth Board of ESN Nijmegen

There’s a Board member responsible for each aspect within the organization. Another task of the board is to be a contact person for Active Members in committees that organize events independently, but are coordinated through Board Members. Other tasks that the Board has is to take care of communication with external actors, such as the universities in Nijmegen, interaction with other student organizations in Nijmegen, and other ESN sections in the Netherlands and throughout Europe.
