The Balkanfila Working Group has circulated another substantial newsletter. In his Editorial, titled “Inspiration Across the Borders”, Christos Gikas reflects on the motivation drawn from the recent series of Zoom meetings between FEPA and its member federations.
The 63-page publication offers readers a rich variety of content, including exhibition news, seminar highlights, social programme reports, a tribute to the tireless Alexandru Bartoc, three research articles, updates on new stamp issues, and much more.
During five FEPA-hosted Zoom meetings in October 2025, representatives from 31 European philatelic federations shared their experiences and innovations on how to secure the future of exhibitions.
Lars Engelbrecht, FEPA Vice President, has prepared a report which consolidates the best practices and insights emerging from those discussions, providing inspiration and guidance for both local societies and national federations.
