The advisory board (BoA) advises and monitors the board in between semi-annual congresses. The body consists of up to seven members elected by the congress. The duties of the BoA are described in Chapter G of the Statutes, the Chapter 5 of the Internal Regulations (here to be found). The BoA meets once every three weeks. BoA members are elected partly at the winter congress and partly at the summer congress.

The current advisory board consists of seven members. The members elected at the Summer Congress 2025 are:

• Luna Heijdendael - President External, Activism & Campaign

The BoA is there not only for the board, but also for members. You can always raise topics with the advisory board, they will then discuss it at a future meeting. You can also contact the BoA with questions. It can be reached via rva@dwars.org.
