Governance Advisory Board

The ACEMS Governance Advisory Board met in April and November 2021. The meetings focused on the ongoing impacts of COVID-19 on Centre activities, annual reporting and progress against KPIs, equity and diversity initiatives, stakeholder engagement, outreach, media and communication activities, financial matters, staffing updates, the final annual retreat, and the Centre’s wind-down and legacy.

The Board’s Partner Organisation Representative, Sybille McKeown from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), left the Board in late 2020. Kristen Stone, also from the ABS, joined the Board shortly afterwards in anticipation of the first meeting in April 2021.
