The incoming Board of Trustees elects in turn the IUHPE President and administers and governs the IUHPE between the sessions of the General Assembly. The nomination process will take place between the 13th of August 2006 and the 12th of December 2006, and the names of all candidates who have confirmed in writing their ability and willingness to stand for election will be enclosed on the ballot paper, according to the Region in which they live. All procedures and guidelines to propose candidates to stand for election for the Board of Trustees for the period 2007-2013 will be clearly outlined in the call for nominations which will be sent in writing to all members of the IUHPE across the world.
