Self-nominations from IAIA members are invited through 30 September 2024.
Are you interested in serving on the IAIA Board? Current IAIA members are encouraged to self-nominate for a Board position for the 2025 election, to be held in January 2025 for the three-year term of May 2025 through May 2028.
To self-nominate, an interested member should gather at least five signatures of support from other current IAIA members. Please see the Self-Nomination Instructions [PDF] document for full details. These signatures should be submitted along with the other required details no later than Monday, 30 September 2024. Self-nominations received after that date will not be considered.
Note that self-nominating does not guarantee a place on this year’s ballot. The IAIA Board Nominations Committee strives to maintain a balance of regional, racial, ethnic, gender, experience, and professional expertise, and actively seeks out nominees from the membership. The Committee then creates a balanced ballot by drawing from both these nominees and self-nominations.
IAIA Board members agree to attend all Board, AGM, and Council meetings (mid-term, and those associated with the Annual Conference); communicate electronically with fellow Board members between meetings, including voting on issues; and be able to obtain their own finance to cover their travel and accommodation costs for these meetings (although it is possible to apply for modest/partial travel reimbursements from IAIA). Please see Information for Potential Candidates 2024 [PDF] for a complete overview of the election process and related commitments. If you have further questions or need clarification after reviewing the document, please contact the current chair of the Board Nominations Committee, Yaw Amoyaw-Osei.
