We are thrilled to announce to our members and community that we have welcomed two new TDA team personnel and an external communications consultant.
On behalf of the Netherlands, in their capacity as TDA Chair, recruiting a Project Coordinator and a Communications Officer became crucial to strengthening TDA’s endeavor and achieving an ambitious work plan.
The work plan aims to increase the impact of TDA through expanding its membership, scaling up existing communities of interest as well as developing new ones, and engaging in regional and global events in a more impactful and strategic manner.
TDA’S NEW PROJECT COORDINATOR
Sylvain Delavergne, a well-experienced young man from France will coordinate the way forward for the alliance.
