EMA : Région Europe, Méditerranée et Amériques (1991-2016)

The European, Mediterranean and Americas’ Region, abbreviated to “E,M+A” or “EMA” was a region within RTI.

E&M becomes EMA Region (1991)

En 1991, Round Table International a été reconstitué, ce qui a entraîné une révision des stratégies régionales afin d’organiser et de soutenir au mieux les associations Round Table dans le monde entier.

The EMA Region replaced the former E&M Region, which was part of WOCO, and incorporated the Americas so as to be in a better situation to support them within this renewed RTI.

In a 1992 Newsletter,  with a title “E+M Region of WOCO becomes E,M+A Region of RTI”, then RTI VP Cees Verweij wrote:

Our region leaves WOCO and creates a RTI Region with the Americans. This is to avoid that other associations join our regional meetings and to simplify the structure as we do not have any Apex Clubs or Active 20/30 of JECC to join our Region. Besides that we want to support RT USA by inviting them to join our Region in RTI as was decided in Harare. In Round Table International we can discuss our Table items as membership, expansion, international friendship, number meetings and twinning. I am looking forward to meeting many of you in May, June and September.

Thus the role of E&M Regional Chairman within WOCO was replaced with an EMA Regional Chairman with RTI. Starting with the Conseil d'administration de RTI 2004-2005, the role of EMA Chairman was to include the role of CSO.

The region coexisted with the Africa Region and Région Asie-Pacifique, covering a considerable number of Associations over multiple continents.
