At the INQUA meeting in Dublin, Ireland, in July 2019, Dr. Dirk Sachse was elected new chair of the INTIMATE project for the period of the next 4 years. A few amendments in the coordination of the group were implemented: the practical management of the project is taken care of by the steering group with representation of different archives, aiming for age, geographical and gender diversity.
