+The GVA is not an organization, but it is organized in several Forum/teams or discussion groups:
 - GVA Director´s Forum (GVAD): VLBI network directors or representatives (2 per network) to discuss any aspect of the global cooperation. \\
 - Science Forum (GVAS): evaluates and fosters the unique and complementary contribution of VLBI to astrophysical research. Members are active scientists, not necessarily linked to any of the VLBI networks in the GVA.\\
 - Technical R&D Forum (GVAT): discusses opportunities and coordinates the development of new instrumentation or procedures.\\
-- Operations and Logistics Forum (GVAO): facilitates and coordinates observations scheduled with several VLBI networks, or with participation of third-party instruments (e.g. multiwavelength/multimessenger).\\
