The MSA Wants Your Input!

The MSA continues growing, and part of our commitment to sustainable growth is to have a fluid relationship with our members. In this regard, there are two important dates that we want to bring to your attention this month.

The first is the upcoming open Members Meeting, hosted by the Co-Presidents, President-Elect and Executive Committee. All MSA members are warmly invited to attend, bring up issues and provide suggestions, comments or requests. The meeting will take place on Thursday January 27, 2022, at 16.00 CET/UTC+1.

You can already register for the Members Meeting here. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information on how to join the meeting. Looking forward to seeing you there!


The second date is Monday January 31, 2022. Until then, the Nominations and Regulations Committee (NRC) willl be accepting nominations for:

(a) the position of President-Elect. The successful candidate will assume the role of President-elect in July 2022, become President in 2023, and past-President in 2024. A description with the tasks of MSA-presidents can be found here.

(b) membership of the Executive Committee; 2 positions. The 2 members elected to the Executive will be appointed as of July 2022 for 3 years. Information on the business of the committee can be found in the minutes of recent meetings.

If you would like more information about the tasks entailed in any of these positions, please contact one of the current presidents. You can read more about the nomination procedure (for yourself or someone else) here.


Last but not least, until Monday January 31, 2022, you can also get in touch if you are interested in transformative inclusivity at the MSA. You can read more about this initiative here.
