At ASSW2026 in Aarhus, Denmark, IASC Council elected a new president and two new vice-presidents to its Executive Committee. Congratulations to:
Matthew Druckenmiller (President, USA), and
Monika Kędra (Vice-President, Poland).
Vice-President João Canario was re-elected, and Vice-Presidents Gabriela Schaepman-Strub (Switzerland) and Hiroyuki Enomoto (Japan) continue. The Executive Committee is complemented by the IASC Executive Secretary Gerlis Fugmann. A sincere thanks to Henry Burgess (former President) for his service.
As they begin and continue their four-year terms, the IASC Executive Committee operates as a board of directors and manages IASC’s activities between Council meetings; this group meets four times a year to discuss and evaluate science initiatives, look at new opportunities for international cooperation, prepare the agenda for Council meetings and review the budget.
