Icelandic Esperanto Association Explained

The Icelandic Esperanto Association (Esperanto: Islanda Esperanto-Asocio; Icelandic: Íslenska esperantosambandið, Esperantosamband Íslands) is one of the national associations of the Universal Esperanto Association (UEA). It was founded in 1950[1] and joined the Universal Esperanto Association in 1975. It publishes a magazine called La velo (The Sail). Its president is Hannes Högni Vilhjálmsson (as of November 2014).
