ICTOP 2022 post Prague AGM & Chair/Board elections

October 17th, 2022

Dear colleagues / Dear ICTOP members,

as you personally witnessed, or heard from others ICOM-ICTOP Prague 2022 programme was very successful. Following recommendations by ICOM HQ Paris we opted not to have ICTOP 2022 Annual General Meeting/General Assembly in Prague but after it (October, November).

As you are aware Annual General Meetings/General Assemblies of ICOM international committees (IC) are important events where members influence development of ICOM international committees, verify reports and plans from elected Chair and Board etc. At the Triennial ICOM General Conferences as part of ICOM IC’s Annual General Meetings/General Assembles elections of IC chairs and boards for the next term usually take place. As previously said the ICOM HQ recommended to have all mentioned after the Prague 2022, and in on-line form.

Accordingly acting ICTOP Chair & Board Members are announcing ICTOP Annual General Meeting / General Assembly (with elections) will take place on-line on November 23rd, at 2:00 PM GMT (Greenwich Mean Time; +/- 0 Coordinated Universal Time – UTC).

Proposed ICTOP Annual General Meeting / General Assembly Agenda:

  1. Opening
  2. Report on Activities in 2021
  3. Report on Activities 2022 (till October) / Prague 2022
  4. Financial Report 2021
  5. Plans for 2023
  6. Results of Chair/Board Elections

N.B. Chair/Board Elections will be organised by on-line tool provided to us by ICOM HQ. Instruction, as well as list/description of candidates will be provided later on, more close to the event. The link for voting, as well for the event session will be provided more close to ICTOP Annual General Meeting / General Assembly too.

We sincerely hope you will be in position to join us on November 23rd, at 2:00 PM GMT for ICTOP Annual General Meeting / General Assembly or (at least) to participate in on-line election process which will be open for a longer time.
