We Need Your Help
We are looking for photos to accompany the narrative of IFAJ's history. In particular, we are looking for images of:
· Past IFAJ presidents - Hans von Örtzen from Germany and France-Pierre Couvreur from France.
· Past IFAJ secretaries general - P. Toft Nielsen from Denmark (1969-1972); Bertil Gustafson from Sweden (1973-1974); and Marius Kwaak from The Netherlands (1989).
· The IFAJ Constituent Assembly in Paris on November 16, 1956, when the constitution was signed, and any other early meeting when the IFAJ was being organized.
· The World Congresses held in 1967 (Montreal, Canada), 1971 (Cannes, France), and 1976 (Ames, Iowa, USA).
· Any of the annual Congresses from 1957 through 1989.
