Board Elections 2022

Welcome to the Candidates’ Profiles page which is specifically created for information purposes to provide you with the key information and help make WHF members’ decisions in the election process. It is NOT the official voting page.

We are pleased to share with you the list of candidates below and encourage you to look at their profiles to find out more about the relevant candidacy before voting.

Elections will take place by electronic vote on 13 September-13 October 2022, and results will be announced at the General Assembly at 16:30-18:00 BRT on 14 October 2022.

All full Members (subject to status) are entitled to cast one vote per organization for each of the elected roles. Please, note that only one person from the full Member organization will be authorized to cast a vote.

If you have any comments or questions, or if you wish to submit a question to the Board for discussion at the General Assembly, please email general.assembly@worldheart.org
