Some of your words…“ I consider IALU to have a strong potential thanks to our commonspirit and philosophy, but weak in its structure, which should allow acloser and more concrete collaboration”.
“A full-time paid position of President and Administrative Assistant isrequired to move IALU to the next level of success”.
“Perhaps the website is not well developed, perhaps there is notgood use of interactive technology, perhaps there is not aninvestment of human and other resources necessary to bolster upthe network.”

– members believe in it, and expect a lot from it,
– is still rather weak, but has a considerable global potential,
– generates many activities, but often short-lived,
– does a lot, but doesn’t capitalize or tell much about it,
– needs a permanent structure and clearer rules,
– needs clear thematic and development lines.
