What is Fullmäktige?
The union council, Fullmäktige (FuM), is the highest decision-making body of Medicinska Föreningen (MF). FuM consists of MF members that together make the large decisions regarding MF, such as deciding about the activity plan, budget and strategic issues that affect all the members and students at KI, as well as electing important positions within MF.
FuM consists of up to 29 members. Members to FuM are elected once a year in the union election in October and the term of office is from November to November. 15 of the 29 mandates in FuM are reserved for section representatives, and the remaining mandates go to members appointed in the union election, Kårvalet. FuM elects the speaker, vice speaker and secretary who lead the FuM meetings.
