The Division for Global Communication and Social Change is run by volunteers. The division's leadership is comprised of a chair, vice-chair, secretary, student/early career scholar representative and international liaision officer. Officers are elected by the division members in elections held periodically. Each officer serves for two years after they are elected, with vice-chairs first serving for two years as vice-chairs and conference planners, and then as chairs for two years.
If you are interested in running for a position within the division's leadership, get in touch with us to learn more. All active members of the division can run in the elections.
