Marie Curie Fellows Association of the Association at the Annual General Meeting. National Groups are one of the pillars of the MCFA. All national groups have their own co-ordinators for the various national activities. These activities include meetings, advice on contract problems, meetings with national government officials, marketing articles and the like. The national co-ordinators form the local groups committee. Regional group meetings are usually informal gatherings of fellows working in large institutions, or living in large cities or within one region. They are useful as social get-togethers, and for help with individual contract problems. Marie Curie Fellows Association The Marie Curie Fellows Association
