There are a lot of things constantly being developed within our organization and the APECS Council represents the most active members of the organization. It is composed of early career researchers that are interested in the activities and the future directions of the organization. Each National Committee and Organizational Member (such as the Permafrost Young Researchers Network and the Northern Research Forum’s PhD Network) is encouraged to nominate a representative to sit on the Council. In addition, individual APECS members that are leading an APECS project, represent an APECS committee, serve as a Research Discipline Coordinator, or are interested in getting more involved are encouraged to join the Council. The Executive Committee is elected from the Council, and a president is elected from within the Executive Committee. We are fortunate at this time to have a paid Director to keep all of our activities coordinated.

Greetings from Gerlis Fugmann, APECS 2009-2010 President |
Hey APECS Members,
As the newly elected president of APECS, it is a pleasure present to you the APECS October 2009 Report and the Priorities for 2009-2010 of the new APECS Executive Committee.
The APECS October 2009 Report is a semi-annual report that highlights the APECS activities from February until October 2009 with a summary of the international accomplishments that APECS was able to achieve as well as a list of upcoming activities. The year 2009 has been very successful so far for our organization and we want to continue building on this in the upcoming year.
As most of you know, on October 1, 2009, the new and very enthusiastic APECS Executive Committee 2009-2010 started its term: Francisco Fernandoy, Germany / Chile, Gerlis Fugmann, Germany; Daniela Liggett, New Zealand; Kate Sinclair, New Zealand and Alex Taylor, Sweden/Canada. As one of our first tasks, we created a document that shows our priorities for APECS in the upcoming year. We think it is important to enhance the current APECS activities and initiatives, and to expand our major services. If you want to know more about the new Executive Committee, you’ll find all of our bios on www.apecs.is/leadership.
We look forward to another exciting year for APECS with lots of possibilities for you to get involved in the various activities so please keep visiting www.apecs.is or
