We are excited to embark on a transformative journey assisted by our newly revised bylaws. The pivotal change outlined in the new bylaws marks a significant milestone in our commitment to fostering a more inclusive, transparent, and strategically-driven organization.

This evolution not only reflects the values of equity, inclusion, and democracy but also empowers our members by enhancing engagement and providing a clear strategic direction for our organization and the broader global data management community. This strategic move is designed to build a cohesive and dynamic global community of data management experts, echoing the success seen in other prestigious global professions.​
