This Year's Event
Each year the assembly moves to a new location and is organised by members from this country around a specific theme, on which the workshops are based. The method of establishing where the assembly is to be held is by proposal, presentation, debate and consensus at an annual meeting of experienced EASA members, the INCM (Intermediate National Contacts Meeting). Essentially the INCM is comprised of core, long term members of EASA from each participating country - known as National Contacts, or NCs - who undertake to organise their country's members, publicise the organisation within their country and contribute meaningfully to the growth, intellectually and physically, of EASA. The organisation is entering into its 26th consecutive
year, the original assembly having taken place in 1981 in Liverpool, UK.In November 2006, delegates from EASA Ireland travelled to the EASA INCM in Moscow to present a bid to host EASA in Ireland for the first time in its history. With delegates from over thirty European countries attending, the Irish bid “Adaptiation“ was chosen to host the 2008 EASA Summer Assembly.
