This year, we held our General Assembly in writing – convenient and independent of location, through the online voting platform Balotilo.
From 12 to 19 June 2026, all our members had the opportunity to have their say on the important topics of the past year as well as on the future of Pikler International.
We are pleased that around 30% of our members cast their vote – a heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to do so! Every single vote helps us develop our association together.
What was decided?
Members approved the 2025 activity report and the financial report by a large majority, and granted discharge to the treasurer. The proposed changes to the statutes were also approved, including an expansion of individual member representation on the board to now three to six people.
We warmly welcome our newly elected board members:
Jean-Marie Caby, Belgium
Nicolas Camourian, France,
Anna Harsch, Austria and
Inge Cardon Fomasi, Switzerland
will now represent the individual members.
Azucena Linares Gomez, Spain, will represent the associate members on the Pikler International Board. Two seats are still vacant. Would any of our associate members like to get involved on the board? We look forward to hearing from you.
Also elected were our two auditors: Françoise Curchod, who has kept a watchful eye on our finances for many years, will now be supported by Raymonde Caffari.
A year full of movement
2025 was an eventful year for Pikler International: we modernised and streamlined our administration with the new ClubDesk software, expanded our presence on Instagram, and held an inspiring trilingual exchange with Elena Herrán Izagirre. We have also begun automating the collection of membership fees and kindly ask all members who have not yet done so to complete their membership via our website.
We remember Anna Tardos and Geneviève Appel with quiet gratitude – they shaped our association and Pikler pedagogy for many years.
We thank all our members for their trust and commitment – and everyone who stood for election or took on a role, for their dedication to Pikler International. We look forward to an exciting new year together with you!
