The nomination period ended 5 February 2024, and we will be publishing the list of candidates on February 20, 2024.
For the Executive Board we have three nominees for President, four nominees for the two positions of Vice President, and we have one nomination each for the positions of Secretary General and Treasurer.
For the International Council, we were seeking 25 nominees. The number of candidates was increased from 15 to 25 by a change in the IAMCR statutes, which not only admitted all section heads to the International Council but also 10 heads of working groups. The number of elected International Council members has to match the number of section and working group heads, which meant that the number of positions for elected IC members increased accordingly. Our candidates, who come from over 23 countries, are testimony to the diversity of IAMCR.
Endorsements
Many letters of support have been sent already. These will appear on the candidates’ pages, and we will accept endorsements for candidates until 20 March 2024. Like the nominations, they should be sent to beate.josephi@sydney.edu.au and membership@iamcr.org. Endorsements are accepted from current paid up IAMCR members only and can be made in any of IAMCR’s three official languages. We will publish them on the candidates’ pages on an ongoing basis.
The election will run electronically from 1 April to 15 April 2024.
