End of a strategic mandate ! | ERFP (original) (raw)

In 2021, Montserrat Castellanos (Spain) was elected by the ERFP Assembly for a three-year term. Although three years may seem short, much was accomplished! One of the key tasks during her mandate was the finalization of the Animal Genetic Resources strategy for Europe, along with its action plan, and the renewal of the Multi-Year Programme of Work (MYPoW) and Terms of Reference. Another highlight of Mrs. Castellanos’s dynamic leadership was the development of communication initiatives: the ERFP network is now fully equipped with a presentation video and flyer, and after a 10-year hiatus, the newsletter has returned!

The ERFP Assembly and Secretariat extend their sincere thanks to Montse for all her hard work and the good times shared together. We hope to continue collaborating beyond the annual assembly.

The new elected chair is Danijela Bojkovski (Slovenia) who is well known by the ERFP community since she was hosting the ERFP secretariat from 2015 till 2028 and the former chair of the in situ Working Group.
