Organisation

Landskap

The landskap is the highest deciding organ of the nation. It serves the same purpose as an association’s annual meeting. All members of the nation have the right to vote at the landskap. At the landskap, all questions can be raised by the attending members; it can be anything from changing the statutes to electing members for positions at the Nation.

The nation is constituted as a non-profit organisation, which means that all positions are elected through votes of confidence. The meeting is led by the elected chairperson of the landskap. If the chairperson cannot attend, the vice chairperson steps in, and after that the first curator. The meeting follows the agenda that is sent out with the summons, and the matters are treated in that order.

At every landskap, two adjustors of the protocol and two vote counters are elected. The adjustors’ task is to certify that the meeting minutes, taken during the landskap, are accurate. After eventual corrections, the protocol is signed by the adjustors, the chairperson and the minutes keeper.

The board of the nation is responsible for matters concerning the nation’s economical and administrative dealings. The board prepares these matters for the landskap. The board is subject to the landskap and consists of elected membrs, the full-timers of the nation as well as the inspectors and the treasurers.

Matters for the board shall be submitted to the first curator no later than eight days before the board’s next meeting. All members of the nation have the right to bring matters to the board.
