This August and September, member representatives of GIJN will vote to elect 7 members of its 15-member Board of Directors. Here is a list of candidates who have submitted their names for GIJN’s Board of Directors.
GIJN is scheduling new elections for its board of directors. There are openings for seven seats on the 15-member board. Each of GIJN’s 244 member organizations is entitled to one vote, which is cast by its designated representative. Those interested in running for the board have until August 7 to apply to be candidates.
An extraordinary group of 20 journalists from 15 countries is running to serve on the first elected board of the Global Investigative Journalism Network. The election, being held online all this week, is the direct result of last month’s big vote by our membership to register GIJN as a nonprofit and to restructure its board of directors with worldwide representation. Each GIJN member organization gets one vote, but everyone can view the candidate bios, statements, and the election rules on our election page. The results will be announced next week!
