Voting rights
Only avuba members present at the General Meeting will have the right to vote. If you are attending passively via zoom, please remember that you won’t be able to vote and/or to ask questions.
In order to know whether a person physically attending the meeting will be able to vote, avuba will have to do an identity check before you can enter the room. Non-members will be asked to take a seat in the back of the lecture hall (room 120). Please, arrive 10 minutes before 18.00, as the verification of voting rights takes some time. avuba will bring a list with the names of all avuba members. Please bring a valid identity card.

avuba co-presidents 2025: Application and election
The avuba co-presidents will be elected for a one-year term by the participating avuba members at the General Meeting. avuba co-presidents are working with a 20% workload and are remunerated in accordance with the University of Basel doc 2 tarif. The salary can be paid out as a fee. The co-presidium is part of the avuba executive board and ideally consists of one doctoral researcher and one postdoc from different faculties. Good German language skills are required, since most university documents are written in German and most meetings take place in German. For more information regarding the task as avuba co-president, you can read the job description (English link, German link). All candidates will get a chance to present themselves at the general assembly before the vote. The two people with the majority of votes will be elected as co-presidents for 2025. The current avuba co-presidents Lars Fluri, doctoral researcher at the Faculty of Business and Economics, as well as Antonia Vogler, doctoral researcher at the Faculty of Humanities, will stand for another year.
