(various fibres, fur, etc.) in all their forms in the fields of archaeology and social anthropology through various means such as the organization of scientific events, the experimentation, the writing and the dissemination of written materials.<\/span> It also wants to create links between the different textile players (professionals, students, artisans), in a multidisciplinary and scientific perspective.<\/span> The association can also offer educational activities, for example in schools and museums.<\/span><\/p>\n The association may have an economic activity by disseminating derivatives, products resulting from experimentation, publications, etc.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The head office is located at 21 avenue de Monjoly, 63400 Chamali\u00e8res (France).<\/span><\/p>\n In the case

proxy.<\/span> This proxy must include the name of the member, the name of his representative and the date of the general meeting for which the said member is represented.<\/span> A member of the association may represent two persons.<\/span><\/p>\n Every five years, after exhaustion of the agenda, the board\u2019s outgoing members are renewed.<\/span> <\/p>\n At the request of the board, or at the request of more than half of the registered members, the president may call a special general meeting, in accordance with the rules laid down in these statutes and only for the amendment of the statutes or the rules of procedure or the dissolution of the association.<\/span><\/p>\n The convening procedures are the same as for the ordinary general meeting.<\/span> For an extraordinary general

provisionally provide for the replacement of its members.<\/span> Their final replacement shall be carried out by the next general meeting.<\/span> The powers of the members thus elected shall expire at the expiry of the term of office of the replaced members.<\/span><\/p>\n The board shall meet at the call of the president, or at the request of a third of its members.<\/span> The meeting may be held by videoconference if one or more board members are unable to physically travel to the meeting site.<\/span> <\/p>\n All functions, including those of board members, are voluntary.<\/span> Only expenses incurred in the performance of their mandate shall be reimbursed on proof.<\/span> The financial report submitted to the ordinary general meeting shall present, by beneficiary, reimbursement of mission, travel or entertainment expenses.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rules shall be drawn up by the board, which shall then have it approved by the general meeting.<\/span><\/p>\n These rules are intended to lay down the various points not provided for in these statutes, in particular those relating to the internal administration of the association.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In the event of dissolution in the manner provided for in Article 11, one or more liquidators shall be appointed, and the net assets, if any, shall be attributed to a non-profit organisation, or an association with similar purposes, in accordance with the decisions of the extraordinary general meeting which decides on the dissolution.<\/span> The net assets may not be attributed to a member of the association, even partially, unless a contribution is taken over.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The association undertakes to present its registers and accounting documents on any requisition by the administrative authorities with regard to the use of the gifts it would be authorised to receive, to allow its establishments to be visited by the representatives of those competent authorities and to report to them on the operation of those establishments.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Done at Clermont-Ferrand on 27 September 2021.<\/strong><\/em> ARTICLE 1 – NAME It is founded between the members of these statutes an
