Standing for the CDI Board

There are currently no elections underway for CDI Board members. Notices of election will be emailed to all members and posted here.

You need to be a member of the CDI to be elected to the Board and, if standing for a post that is elected by CDI members, your nomination needs to be supported by five current CDI members.

Please note: The most common reason for applications being rejected is membership numbers of the nominee or their supporters being incorrect or invalid.
