We are pleased to announce the establishment of the EAHAD Nomination Committee, a new body created to ensure a fair, transparent, and structured process for electing members of the EAHAD Executive Committee.
The Nomination Committee plays a crucial role in reviewing and evaluating candidates proposed by EAHAD members for Executive Committee positions. Its purpose is to identify those individuals who demonstrate the strongest potential to contribute to EAHAD’s mission of improving care for people with haemophilia and allied disorders across Europe.
The Nomination Committee consists of the EAHAD Officers (President, Immediate Past President, Vice President, Treasurer, and Secretary) as permanent members. In addition, three members from EAHAD’s working groups or committees were appointed by the Executive Committee to join, based on their experience and skills.
The original members of the Nomination Committee are:
- Robert Klamroth (Chair)
- Jan Blatny
- Ana Boban
- Niamh O’Connell
- Wolfgang Miesbach
- Victor Jimenez Juste
- Paul Mclaughlin
- Flora Peyvandi
The Committee will evaluate candidates according to clear eligibility and evaluation criteria, including:
- Minimum two years of EAHAD membership
- At least five years’ professional experience in haemophilia and bleeding disorders
- Demonstrated leadership and multidisciplinary collaboration
- Active engagement in the haemophilia community
- Commitment to advancing EAHAD’s mission and strategy
The Committee also ensures diversity in career stage, geographic representation, and expertise.
This new Committee is an important step forward in strengthening EAHAD’s governance, ensuring that Executive Committee elections are conducted with transparency, fairness, and alignment to our strategic goals.
