They constitute an essential platform that brings together the different members of the ECA to discuss and share information, exchange and update opinions, develop and justify common positions so that clubs speak with one voice. One of the main functions of these working groups is to provide recommendations and support to the Board of Directors, the Executive Committee and the ECA representatives in the various committees, with transparency and engagement. »
