At its meeting last Thursday, February 6, the Efling Union’s Delegate Council approved the Selection Committee’s proposal for appointments to the Union’s board for the 2025-2027 term. According to Efling’s law, elections to the Union’s board are held annually, half of the board every other year, and the board’s term of office is two years.
This time, appointments are being made to the vice chairman, secretary, and five co-directors. The selection committee’s list is as follows:
Vice chairman: Þórir Jóhannesson
Secretary: Guðmunda Valdís Helgadóttir
Co-directors:
Alexa Tracia Patrizi
Hjörtur Birgir Jóhännuson
Ian Phillip McDonald
Karla Esperanza Barralaga Ocon
Sigurjón Ármann Björnsson
If members intend to submit a different list, this must be done before noon on Monday, February 17th. The lists must be submitted to the Union’s office at Guðrúnartún 1 and accompanied by the recommendation of 120 members. Elections are governed by sections III, V, and IV of the Efling Union’s laws.
Efling’s chairman, Sólveig Anna Jónsdóttir, was elected last year for a two-year term. The same goes for the position of treasurer, to which Michael Bragi Whalley was elected. Guðbjörg María Jósepsdóttir, Innocentia Fiati Friðgeirsson, Kolbrún Valvesdóttir, Olga Leonsdóttir, Rögnvaldur Ómar Reynisson, and Sæþór Benjamín Randalsson will continue as co-directors, all of whom were elected last year for two-year term.
