The 2021 General Assembly of IUMRS was held online on 6 September 2021. Presidents and/or their representatives of all 11 active Adhering Bodies, as well as IUMRS Officers, attended the meeting. Besides the usual matters (election of officers, budget, conferences), the meeting discussed the possibility of setting up a Regional Office in Africa, a review of IUMRS governance and a working group to enhance IUMRS global coverage. Election of Officers and decisions on other issues will be carried out post the meeting due to the inconvenience of voting at an online meeting.
