Dear Member Society,
The IMAGO Election Committee is pleased to announce the call for candidates for the following positions to be elected during the online hybrid IMAGO General Assembly (IAGA) on May 12th, 2025:
3 seats on the IMAGO Board, for a 3-year term, including:
- 1 seat for President
- 2 seats for regular board members
We encourage all interested members to submit their candidacy to contribute to IMAGO’s growth and improvement.
Nominations must include a letter from the candidate’s member society, signed by two Board members, specifying the desired position and confirming the candidate is running with the society’s approval. Please send nominations to electioncommittee@imago.org by April 18th, 2025, to be eligible for election.
To ensure a smooth voting process during the IAGA, it is of utmost importance that every society provides IMAGO with a verifiable voting e-mail address, and the name of your designated voting delegate. This information must be signed by two Board members from your society, allowing your designated voting delegate to cast their votes on the secret ballots. Please note that failure to provide a verifiable voting e-mail address prior to the IAGA will result in the inability to vote. Kindly send this information to: electioncommittee@imago.org with office@imago.org in copy, by April 27, 2025.
Please bear in mind that, as per IMAGO Statutes, only full members in good standing are eligible to participate in the voting process. We kindly request you to review your records and ensure that the invoice sent by our treasury has been paid before the IAGA.
We, the Election Committee will verify eligibility, prepare a candidate list, and publish it on the IMAGO website for evaluation. The candidates are also encouraged to provide personal statements for their candidacy to be published in the members-only section of the website.
In accordance with Article 25.2 of the Statutes, each IMAGO Board member (with voting rights) should come from a different full member society. Although multiple candidates may be nominated from each society, we recommend that each society nominate only one candidate.
Additional instructions regarding the voting process, as well as the link for the online hybrid IAGA will be sent to you well in advance by the Election Committee and the Administration.
Please contact us with any questions.
Thank you,
