| New Chairman for the British and Irish Section (RSAI-BIS) At their recent conference in July in Bristol, the British and Irish Section elected Declan Jordan as their new Chairperson. Declan is a Senior Lecturer in Economics at Cork University Business School in University College Cork in Ireland. He has been involved with the Section for many years having previously acted as the Section's Secretary and a committee member for many years. He will be known to ERSA members as the Chair of the LOC for ERSA 2018 in Cork. One of his first tasks as Chair of the British and Irish Section will be to organise the hosting of the 51st RSAI-BIS Conference in June 2025 in Cork to which he hopes to welcome many ERSA friends and colleagues. Declan succeeded Professor Maria Abreu of the University of Cambridge as Chair, who expertly steered the Section through the difficult COVID period and ensured the Section's continued health. We wish Declan Jordan and all new board members a fruitful term! more |  |  |
