We are happy to introduce our new SGEU Steering Committee! Following the elections in July, the committee welcomes three new members: Federica Zardo (Donau University Krems), Christian Freudlsperger (ETH Zurich), and Adam Holesch (IBEI). Our new chair is Dimiter Toshkov (Leiden University) and our deputy chair is Ana Juncos (University of Bristol). We warmly thank Natasha Wunsch, Virginie Guiraudon and Jonathan Zeitlin who are stepping down as members of the Steering Committee after completing their terms. They all provided great service to the SGEU standing group in various capacities (chair, treasurer, conference organizer), and their engagement has been crucial to the development of our group and its activities. We are all deeply grateful for their contributions! Some final words from our outgoing chair: 'It has been a great pleasure and honour for me to serve as the SGEU chair over the past two years and I look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events in the years to come. Best wishes, Natasha Wunsch'
