Hi Gerlis.
I know that I havent been able to do much in the way of organising conferences etc. but there seems to be a good opportunity in Leeds, which hosts a conference on 'postcolonialism in the Arctic' end of May 2014.
I'm extremely busy around this time but I am letting Ella know about this idea.
Hope the excom meeting goes well. Sorry in advance if I cannot make it due to using a university PC (with no Skype software installed .. YET!)
Best,
Mika

Hi Mika and Heather,
Since we now have some new Council members, would be maybe good to remind the Council again of
a) various mailing lists they can sign up to for finding information to post on the website (jobs, events etc.) … we have a google doc for that
b) thinking about organising an event (workshop, panel, social get together or anything) at upcoming conferences they are planning to attend. I know some Council members already do that (either as individuals or as part of National Committee activities) but still a reminder would be probably good. We have some great advice on the website for that http://www.apecs.is/careers/conference-tips/plan-an-apecs-panel (and of course they can get advice from you, the ExCom or me if they have never done that before). There are several events planned already so it is also good to check back with us if an event is already organised at a particular conference. But would be nice to encourage them to organise some more events :)
Cheers,
Gerlis
