After about ten years of activities, the AESOP Planning/Conflict thematic group launches a
call for applications to become involved in the TG’s coordination.
Envisioned is the establishment of a coordination committee in charge of the TG and of its activities,
composed of:
- one co-coordinator, particularly in charge of relations with AESOP,
- two co-coordinators, particularly in charge tasks such as internal communication (TG website and relations with members) and external communication (relations with academic partners and contributors).
In taking over coordination of the TG, the first tasks of the new coordination committee would be:
- to adopt a basic TG charter of self-governing rules (e.g. internal tasks and responsibilities, tenures etc.) of the coordination committee members,
- to appoint a scientific advisory committee to support the TG’s activities,
- to improve communication with TG members and their involvement,
- to discuss and adopt a strategy and program of activities for the coming years.
For choosing the new coordination committee members, a two-steps procedure is proposed:
1. application: please express your interest before May 15, 2026 providing a brief statement of your motivation and of your ideas for contributing to the TG’s activities, using the following link:

2. voting: upon publication of applications, a link for voting in anonymized form will be provided open to all through the AESOP TG website and the AESOP newsletter.
