Nominations for all IAWBH Board positions closed at 12.00 UTC on Friday 31st October 2024. There was only one nomination for the role of President. Accordingly, the following member is declared elected for this role: President: Alison Thirlwall We are required to have two practitioner members serving on the Board and the term of one of our current practitioner members is concluding. There was only one practitioner nomination. Accordingly, the following member has been declared elected for this role: Board Member: Doris Bozin In respect of the two remaining vacant positions on the Board, we are very pleased to announce that five candidates have been successfully nominated to stand for election. Their bios and photos are available here , below, and in your email regarding the election. Due to the high number of candidates for the two vacant positions, we are using a voting system in which you rank candidates in your order of preference. If a simple majority is not achieved in the first round of counting, the person who receives the fewest votes will have their votes taken out of the final count. The second choice candidate on the votes taken out will be identified and that vote transferred to the second choice candidate. Once all the votes for the excluded candidate are redistributed to the remaining candidates they will be added to the first distribution of votes. If there is still not a simple majority, this process is repeated until there is a simple majority. In the event of a tie between the top two candidates a ‘run-off’ election will be held between those two candidates only. In the event of a further tie, the President shall have the casting vote. Please note that the President did not nominate or second any candidate and will abstain from voting in the event of a second round of voting. Voting is now open at the link below: https://qualtricsxm6329tmffb.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_a46kcPlfhoio6tU To cast a valid vote you must vote by midday (12.00 pm) Sunday 24th November 2024 UTC and you must have a current financial membership of the IAWBH.

14th IAWBH INTERNATIONAL Conference abstractsOur 14th International conference in Huddersfield, UK, from 25-28 June 2024, was an absolutely fabulous event with some amazing speakers. It was particularly wonderful and very inspiring to hear from our esteemed colleagues, Professors Stale Valatne Einarsen and Eva Gemzoe Mikkelson. It was also good to see the team from the International Labour Organisation (ILO) at our event. A huge thank you to Stale and Eva, to the ILO team, and also to Dr Frances McGregor and her team for putting together such a truly unforgettable and stimulating event which offered such a fine balance between excellent conference presentations and memorable venues for our conference social calendar (and yes, there was dancing!) We will have more to say in our upcoming July-August 2024 newsletter............ You will find the conference proceedings here.
