The Executive Committee (EC) is made up of twelve elected members of the ECPR community. Elections take place every three years and members hold a six-year tenure, ensuring continuity. The current EC will serve the term 2024–27. For this term, Daniela Irrera is appointed Chair, with Amy Verdun serving as Vice Chair.
As Trustees of ECPR, the Executive Committee is responsible for all aspects of the running of the organisation. To handle this effectively, it delegates many of its responsibilities to Subcommittees and Working Groups, to the Director and Staff. The EC’s work is divided into four subcommittees, each guiding the strategic direction of that portfolio.
