IGeLU is staffed entirely by volunteers, and we’re grateful to those individuals and their institutions, who have given so much time for the benefit of the IGeLU community. The names below represent just a fraction of the people who have contributed to the work of IGeLU, and we’d like to extend our thanks to all those who have given their time over the years – from Working Group members, to newsletter contributors, to conference coordinators, and many others.
