During the meeting, outgoing Secretary General Ella Miceli Farrugia gave an overview of the truly eventful year that’s just come to an end. Several statute amendments were made and the new executive board was elected.
Just having been elected as President, Bugelli looked back on the past year and forward towards a year which aspires to be even more fruitful. “2018/2019 was a big year for UESA,” he said.
Following a rather dormant 2017/18, we faced the difficult task of bringing the association back to its feet. So we restructured the organization, we improved our marketing efforts and went out of our way thinking of new ways to improve the student’s life on campus.
Bugelli reminisced on some of the major events that UESA organised over the past year. “Our two biggest projects were the international EYE conference and the Erasmus-funded HelloFuture project,” he continued, “The success we achieved in these events is a clear indication that we have what it takes to be one of the biggest organizations on campus.”
I’m proud of the success we attained this past year.
Bugelli concluded by looking forward to the coming term saying, “I feel truly honored to have been entrusted to lead this organisation. Together with my new team, I will strive to continue implementing the vision we set.”
For those that might have doubted our organisation I can assure you that not only is UESA back but under my tenure it’s back for more.
