Since 2021 CIVA has held two mid-year Free Discussion sessions for delegates, these being established to provide an open environment where all participants can present and debate ad-hoc topics of general interest away from the formal structure of the agenda-driven Plenary Conferences held by CIVA toward the end of each year.
As requested during the first session in May 2022 a record of the points debated during each session is now prepared and published below the archived collection of formal Plenary Conference minutes on this website.
