The Network Commission of AEGEE-Europe is one of the most mobile and active bodies of AEGEE-Europe. Its task is to keep the core of the network together - the antennae. In this sense, they are the ones that will pay you a visit or communicate with you if you have problems. They are there to "Serve and Protect".

The Network Commission, better known as NetCom, is composed of 10 members, that can be either individuals or locals (or the president adopted on Agora-Torino where AEGEE-Skopje and AEGEE-Athina candidated together for Netcom, leading to similar case in AGORA - Enschede). The NetCommies are elected at the Agora for a period of one year, that they dedicate to support weak locals, create new ones, enhance the flow of information between the locals and the European Level, co­ordinate the organization of Regional Meetings, assist the Network Development Director in his/her tasks, and provide information and help, to all European level bodies. Basically they are there to improve the vertical communication in the network, bringing all bodies closer.

The Network Commission was introduced in the Agora in Athina, November 1996, at the same time when the number of CD members was reduced from 12 to 9. During the period from Athina until the Agora in Enschede (Spring 1997), there was a Network Commission Implementation Team that worked in the creation of the structures that are right now functioning.

Always with the support of the CD, the NetCom has been gradually increasing its responsibilities and taking a proactive role in the development of the network. At present state, the NetCom has earned a reputation of a well-functioning body, whose members are extremely enthusiastic and work very hard for the development and the improvement of AEGEE-Europe.

Through continuous evaluation of their work, the NetCom drafted an Internal Working Format that specifies the following tasks for its members:

• support the locals and working groups in all reasonable    ways, especially by regularly informing the locals about important facts
• support the work of the Speaker of the Network Commission  and the Network Development Director
• present themselves and a work plan for their mandate to the Network Commission, the Network Development Director and the locals of their region within the first  month of their mandate
• organize and/or initiate a meeting with regard to regional affairs within the first six months of the mandate (e.g. regional meeting)
• enhance the information flow between locals, working groups, Network Commission and Network Development Director by providing essential information of AEGEE-Europe to the locals, strictly following the guidelines given by the Network responsible regarding the distribution of information
• develop the network, especially by taking measures to help threatened locals and to found new locals and supporting them with information
• motivate the locals to remain active and fulfill the requirements towards AEGEE-Europe, and the Working Groups in their respective regions
• furthen the organization of Internal Education events, AEGEE meetings and other events in their region and support the organizing locals and/or working groups
• support the co-ordination of local and regional fundraising and PR activities and help the locals with nation-wide fundraising
• further the co-operation and exchanges between locals in the same or different regions
• are committed and dedicated to the functioning of the network
• should report shortly their achievements to the Network Commission and the Network Development Director, on a monthly basis. Any member of the Network Commission who, without valid excuse, fails to hand in the monthly report for three consecutive months or does not present 3 monthly reports between the Agorae, will be considered as having resigned his/her post
• should generally comply with all reasonable requests by the Speaker of the Network Commission and the Network Development Director and stay in close contact with them
• should contact the CD before approaching local governments, institutions and companies and communicating these efforts and results to the CD, the Network Commission and the locals as soon as possible
• should report urgent problems within their region immediately to the Network Development Director in order for him or her to be able to take the appropriate action
• should answer to mail requests by the CD, locals or commissioners and generally maintain

AEGEE boosts to be the leader of all youth organisations in Europe in the field of mobility and intercultural co-operation. The most important thing of it is the structure without national level.
However, since the early times of the Network Commission the problem of regions, regional level and regional identity exists.
Regional level is one of the most confusing topics in AEGEE. There are many discussions and missunderstandings connected with that, what makes this issue even less clear. That is why we want to present you the most important points of it in the form of questions and answers: 

1. Does AEGEE have regional level?
   The answer for this question can be only one: AEGEE structure does not include regional level. There are only local branches (antennae) that are associated in the Europe-wide network that we call AEGEE-Europe.
2. So what exactly are “regions”?
   Regions are the task division inside Network Commission (Netcom). In order to make work of the netcommies easier and structured everyone of us is taking care of a particular group of AEGEE-locals, usually situated close to each other.
3. Is the Netcommie the “boss” of all locals in the region?
   Of course not! The Network Commission is to help locals and to facilitate good communication between antennas and european AEGEE-bodies
4. Are the borders of regions strict?
   In fact, regions do not have borders. AEGEE has decided to skip national level because we want to be pioneers of intercultural communication and youth mobility. For AEGEE-member borders are just draws on the map.  That’s why we don’t want to establish any new borders, like regional-borders.
5. Are regions fixed in the official documents of AEGEE?
   No. Regions are only task divisions inside Netcom and Netcom can decide on every netcom meeting about the shape of this division. That means that the Netcom does not need to ask the Agora for permission to do the changes.
6. Is my local obliged to co-operate with other locals from our region?
   Of course co-operation is something that is part of AEGEE-philosophy. It means that every local is encouraged to co-operate with others, especially those who are close or face similar challenges. It doesn’t have to be linked to the “region” and there is no obligation to co-operate with other locals who are under the care of the same netcommie.
7. What is a Network Meeting? Do I have to go to the Network Meeting organised by my netcommie?
   A Network Meeting is the new name of regional meeting. It is an event organized by every member of Network Commission with co-operation of one of the locals in his/her region. It contains workshops, lectures and trainings in different topics connected with AEGEE. Every AEGEE-member can join whichever of the 10 Network Meetings organised every six months all over Europe. Of course if you want to meet your netcommie the best is to travel to NM organised by him/her, but it is not an obligation
