Board of Directors
The Federal Idea already numbers over 200 supporters, hailing from a broad range of sectors of activity.
They support The Federal Idea enthusiastically and on a voluntary and individual basis. Each one contributes, in his or her own way, to enriching the discussion on the evolution of federalism as a system of values, principles and division in complete freedom and independence.
The opinions of members reflect only those members’ views, the feeling of the network being that it is the experience and thinking of each one, as well as the diversity of points of view on federalism, that will enrich the group.
Activities will be financed through donations from the group’s members and from its sympathizers.
With the goal of seeing to the start-up of the organization and to the launch of the group’s activities, The Federal Idea formed a Board of directors made up of the following members.
