The Council is an advisory group for the Board and acts as a link between the members in their country and the Association. Council members also have an important role in publicizing EAHIL and recruiting new members. This presentation can be used as such or translated into other languages to promote EAHIL at national events: EAHIL_presentation_2022_2023

The Council usually meets formally once a year at the time of the annual EAHIL conference or workshop.

Councilors are elected for a term of four years by the voting EAHIL members resident in their country. Councilors may be re-elected once, after which they are not eligible for re-election until they have been absent from the Council for two years.

Each member state of the Council of Europe is eligible to elect councilors, provided that there are at least five voting members based in the country:

• • fewer than 5 voting members = 0 councillors
  • 5-29 voting members = 1 councillor
  • 30-54 voting members = 2 councillors
  • 55 and over voting members = 3 councillors
