PAM’s Congress elections will be held between 25 March and 8 April 2019. The election will designate around 400 congress representatives, who will elect PAM’s Council and Executive Committee, as well as a new President for the union at the Union congress in Helsinki between 4 and 6 June 2019. During the congress a target-setting program will also be drawn up for the next four years. PAM’s current President Ann Selin is stepping down from her position next summer.
