Applications now open for interested candidates to apply to be part of the IAMHIST Council, 2025 – 2029
The International Association for Media and History (IAMHIST) is managed by the Council, as duly elected representatives of the membership. The council consists of the IAMHIST president and 11 council members and meets once or twice a year (online or in person) to plan and administer upcoming conferences, events and initiatives. Every two years, an online election of council members is organised among the members. The results are announced at the IAMHIST General Assembly Meeting held at the biennial IAMHIST Conference.
We are currently seeking candidates for the 2025 election. There will be six vacancies on the council. We invite applications from individuals who meet the following criteria:
Your profile
- You are archivist, scholar and/or media practitioner working in the field of media history/media and history.
- You have been a member of IAMHIST <https://iamhist.net/membership/> at least within the last two years, and you have demonstrated a commitment to the association.
- You commit to attending council meetings and IAMHIST events.
- You are available for at least four years.
- You are prepared to take on responsibilities for a selection of specific IAMHIST events or activities.
- You agree to adhere to and uphold IAMHIST’s Diversity Statement.
IAMHIST is an equal opportunity organisation. As the organisation is devoted to furthering the careers of early career researchers and media practitioners, we especially encourage these individuals to step forward.
