20/02/2024 read more ...Marc-Frédéric Schäfer starts as a VP for Legal Affairs.
Since Mr. Jim Fraser retired from his position as a VP for Legal Affairs in June 2019, he has been assisting the Commission and Presidium in several matters. We are very grateful the time and the valuable support he has consistently given in the past and will give in the future to the WDSF!
On the initiative of the Legal Commission, the WDSF Presidium unanimously accepted the nomination of Dr. Schäfer to act as a VP for Legal Affairs; the term is temporary until the AGM in Belgrade in June 2020, when the election among the members for this position will be held.
Dr. Schäfer has acted as a President and board member of the Swiss DanceSport Association for numerous years, until 2017. He is member of the WDSF Legal Commission since 2010. He acts as national chairperson in Switzerland and Germany and is recognized scrutineer in WDSF.
Even though he has retired as a competitor and official in competitions, his passion for DanceSport has made him a member of the Legal Commission already for ten years. As a lawyer and economist, Dr. Schäfer´s professional experience relates to such areas as merger control and commercial, corporate and criminal law.
During 2018-2019, the GDPR regulations kept him busy – earlier he was appointed to act as a responsible person for WDSF Data Protection.
I am honored to serve the WDSF as a VP for Legal Affairs and will do my best to help the DanceSport Community in all matters related to Legal Commission. I would like to thank Jim Fraser and my other colleagues in Legal Commission for their support, as well as the Presidium for their trust in me, says Marc Frédéric Schäfer from Switzerland.
