Congratulations to each of the new Board Members! The new Board’s aim is to take the IIAR forward on its path towards growing into becoming a truly global organization and support members in meeting their wishes, objectives and career goals over the coming year.

The turnout for this year’s election was 54% (compared to 40% last year), with some 50% of voters also responding to the additional IIAR governance questions. Many thanks to all who participated in the election process.

The new Board will be holding a conference call early next year to present their ideas and plans to members – further details to follow. In the meantime IIAR members can find out more about each Board member’s goals for the institute and the detail of the election results by clicking here.
