At the conclusion of another successful Annual Conference in Paris, the GRASFI AGM appointed three new members to their Board. Naciye Sekerci from KU Leuven, Hao Liang from Singapore Management University, and Rainer Klump from Goethe University Frankfurt have started a three year term on the GRASFI Board. They will join remaining Board members, Anna Creti from Paris Dauphine PSL University, Chendi Zhang from University of Exeter, and Executive Director Heidi Raubenheimer.
As an alliance of Universities, GRASFI member universities direct and govern GRASFI activities through the Board and its Subcommittees. The Conferences Subcommittee oversees decisions and standards of the GRASFI Conferences and is comprised mostly of former and upcoming conference hosts. The PhD Subcommittee oversees PhD activities including the new series of GRASFI PhD workshops. For the first time this year we have two PhD students (members of a key stakeholder group!) joining the PhD Subcommittee: Frederique Bouwman (Maastricht) and Nik Hastreiter (LSE).
We wish all the Board and Subcommittee members well for the new academic year and we thank them for their contribution to the work of the Global Research Alliance for Sustainable Finance and Investment.
