OR6

The YM Action Committee welcomes Hripsime Mkrtchyan (left) and Tanausú Hernández (middle). Richard Zeltner (right) has been elected as the new chair and is following Roberta Caruso, who did not run for another term, into office.

While the annual leadership meeting and the celebrations for the 10th anniversary of EPS YM have been postponed due to the Corona-pandemic many sections all over Europe are active despite the challenging situation, and some are even testing new and innovative formats to e.g. perform outreach activities via online channels.

Of course the Action Committee is active as well in managing the project, and has assembled for an online meeting last week. Among others the meeting brought the election of a new chair: Richard Zeltner will succeed Roberta Caruso, who did not run for another period, to the office. Many thanks to Roberta for years of dedication and leadership. But this was not the only personal change: Araceli Venegas-Gomez and Giorgio Nocerino are leaving the committee to follow new challenges, and Hripsime Mkrtchyan and Tanausú Hernández, who joined early this year, were formally introduced. Many thanks to Araceli and Giorgio for their valuable contributions over the years and all the best for their future, and welcome to Hripsime and Tanausú.
