Servas Netherlands

The association Servas Nederland currently has approximately 280 members (households), of which approximately 110 are travellers and nearly 250 are hosts or day hosts.

The Servas-Nederland team consists entirely of volunteers.  The board currently consists of three members: a shared chairmanship and a treasurer.  At least as important are the travel coordinator and the ServasOnline coordinator.  The regional coordinators are the point of contact for the members in their region, they also conduct introductory meetings with prospective members.  In addition, there are several members who regularly or incidentally help to keep the association running.

The annual general meeting of members (ALV) is held at the end of March.  All members are invited to talk and decide on the association.  The ALV is also the time to meet and exchange experiences with Servas (as traveller or host).

Once a year there are regional meetings: the regional coordinator invites the members of his region to this.  Smaller-scale gatherings spontaneously take place outside these annual meetings.

Meetings are announced and news and travel reports are posted under News/Dialogue.
