IMS Delegate Elections 2023
New year means new elections for our LYMEC IMS delegates!
Since the Spring Congress is approaching and the new year has started, we hereby announce the yearly elections to be held on 3-6 February 2023 to elect the IMS delegates for 2023. We hereby open the call for candidacies for the 3 positions available.
Deadline for applications is Tuesday, 24 January 2023 at 10h00 CET (Brussels time). To apply, please send the following materials to [email protected] AND [email protected]:

NB: The CVs will be available on the LYMEC website for the duration of the elections, so please refrain from including personal data such as address, phone number etc.
All candidates will be presented on an election website that will open by 26 January 2023. The candidacies will also be presented in an email to all individual members, and an online debate between candidates will take place the days before the elections (exact date will be defined after the deadline for candidacies). Candidates can also engage in online campaigning on social media through their own channels if they wish to do so.
The tasks and duties of the IMS delegates are to represent the Individual Members at the statutory meetings of LYMEC (Congresses), to coordinate the IMS input at these meetings: resolutions, motions and amendments, and to liaise with the Steering Committee.

There are two Congresses in the mandate, we strongly encourage people to only apply if you certainly can attend these Congresses (the Spring Congress will be taking place between 5-7 May 2023 in Budapest while the Autumn Congress probably between 3-5 or 10-12 November 2023 in a location TBC). Please double-check your duties in our IMS Internal Rules.

The elections will be conducted online, in accordance with the statutes of the organisation. A separate email with instructions regarding the voting will be sent in due time to voting individual members.
