EANA - About Us
The European Astrobiology Network was founded in Spring 2001 during the First European Workshop on Astrobiology co-organized with ESA at the ESRIN research facility in Frascati, Italy.
The EANA Executive Board consists of the following organizational structure: President, two Vice Presidents, two Secretaries, Treasurer, AbGradE representative, and our Honorary Presidents (previous Presidents of EANA). All positions are elected by the EANA Council, which is renewed every three years.
The EANA Executive Council consists of national representatives from European (and affiliated) countries with active Astrobiology groups, networks, or societies. These national members are designated after consultation with institutional bodies supporting Astrobiology in the country concerned. In addition, the Council consist of elected members in a number equal to the number of active nations. These councillors are elected by the EANA community and serve for three years.
