Invitation to nominate new candidates for the EES board 2025-2028

This autumn, European Evaluation Society (EES) will be holding an election for 3 new board members, the positions become vacant as of 1 January 2025.

The EES board encourages every member to seriously consider either nominating or being nominated for these elected positions. While serving on the EES Board is not an honorary position and requires a significant commitment of time and energy (and the flexibility to contribute to variety of tasks), it can be an enriching and exciting journey.

The EES is launching a range of new initiatives as part of our transformation as a society that is fully engaged in serving and supporting the development of our evaluation community.  These activities include: our new Learning Hub providing professional development and learning exchange opportunities; policy fora  connecting policy makers, evaluators and policy research organisations to stimulate debate and development in public policy areas in which evaluators work; strengthening the work of our Thematic Working Groups; increased collaboration with our institutional members including joint activities and enhanced services to increase our membership base.   Additionally all these activities will be supported through media and communications campaigns as well as outreach and networking with our community.

We are seeking Board members who are keen to lead and/or actively contribute to one or more of these current strategic initiatives as outlined above. We invite nominees to indicate their interests in these initiatives and what they can bring to their successful implementation. As a Board member of EES, you will have a unique opportunity to contribute to shaping the future of evaluation in Europe and beyond, while serving a growing, diverse, and vibrant community of professionals. We look forward to your nominations.

Two sets of nomination forms are available to download : one for the nominator EES Board Nomination Form 2024 (presenting the candidate) and one for the candidate EES Board Nomination Acceptance Form 2024 (accepting the nomination). Please note that the forms must be signed and received by the EES Secretariat no later than 15 November 2024 (by midnight, CET).
