Dear ORU-Fogar members, Happy New Year 2021 !
We have just said goodbye to a year that has shaken us all on all levels and has forced us to question ourselves and refocus on the most important priorities at all scales: States, local authorities, public services and even at the scale of individuals. The Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic presented an enormous challenge to today's world. The challenge of learning how to manage an unusual and urgent global crisis and how to quickly find ways to adapt. This has been the case for our organization, which has shown great adaptability in order to continue providing services to member regions and holding regular meetings of its bodies while maintaining continuity in communication and a very strong presence in international events in virtual format.
