UEC: 1 strategy, 3 priorities (good governance, competitive balance, integrity & sustainability)

Good governance, competitive balance, integrity and sustainability are the three priorities of the UEC strategy presented at its first general assembly on 24/04 and detailed in a document on 13/05/2024.
