Who are we?
EuroScience is the European Association for the Advancement of Science and Technology, an international, membership-based non-profit organisation. The mission of EuroScience is to promote a scientific community that creates positive change for society through open dialogue between science and the wider society, promoting a fair, open and healthy research culture and fostering excellence in science and research integrity. The flagship action of EuroScience is the biennial EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF), Europe’s largest general science conference, dedicated to furthering dialogue on science and scientific practice, presenting cutting-edge research advances and examining the impact of science on society.
Who are we looking for?
To be representative of Europe, the members of the EuroScience Governing Board should be diverse in age, experience, skills, gender, geography, cultural context and perspectives. They should be willing to devote time and expertise to the organisation, show team spirit, share their broad networks, and respect the values, perspectives and actions of others. One key factor for the success of EuroScience is that its Governing Board be a working body. All candidates for Governing Board election must currently be full members of EuroScience (or become full members at the time of their application for candidacy)[1].
We are looking for members who are especially interested in the following topics:

The Governing Board position is non-remunerated but EuroScience covers travel and accommodation expenses for physical meetings. All meetings and communications are in English.
Election procedure:
Application documents from all eligible candidates will be distributed to all full members of EuroScience, who will cast their votes in an electronic secret-ballot election from 1 – 30 April 2022.
The election results and the composition of the new EuroScience Governing Board will be publicly announced in May 2022. The first meeting of the new Governing Board will be held physically during ESOF 2022 from 13 – 16 July 2022 in Leiden, The Netherlands.
