    Dear Colleagues,<br>
    <br>
    the window has now closed on nominations for the position of EURALO
    Board member.<br>
    <br>
    One person has been nominated: Olawale Bakare, as seen on

    <br>
    As we have one candidate, and according to prior practice, rather
    than conducting a vote, we conduct a consensus call on the
    candidate. <br>
    <br>
    This is therefore a 24H consensus call, to support Olawale Bakare to
    join the EURALO Board. <br>
    <br>
    If you have any objections to supporting this candidate, please
    contact me or staff directly.<br>

      in light of the first report of the At-Large review, I am very
