Chair: Laila Badran

Hiii everyone, 

My name is Laila, and I’m Chair of the Board of Study Association Clio this year! As Chair, I represent Clio, not just to our lovely members, but also to the university, professors, and fellow associations. This means my schedule is filled with all kinds of interesting meetings, keeping things busy but always exciting and full of variety!

One of my key responsibilities is writing the general policy, which outlines the goals our Board wants to achieve this year. We’re building a more Unified Clio by deepening our sense of community, professionalising internal structures, and creating an inclusive environment where every member feels safe, seen, and supported. And to top it all off, I’ll also be the Board Representative for the Career and Forum Committees this year!

Outside of Clio, I love exploring the city, enjoying a drink with friends, going for the occasional run, listening to music, reading, watching movies, or trying out new recipes in the kitchen. I’m really looking forward to everything this year will bring, spending time with all of you and being part of Clio’s journey as we grow together!

If you ever have any questions, or just want to say hi, feel free to send me an email at clio.voorzitter@gmail.com


Hey everyone!
I am Sanne and I will be fulfilling the role of the (best ;)) position in the Board this year; Secretary! I graduated last year with my BA, so that means I have all the time this year to focus on being the best Secretary and to make an amazing year for everyone! As the Secretary, I am responsible for answering all emails that come to info@clio.nl, making the weekly Newsletter, and much more! Besides that, I am also the Board Representative of the Academic and Excursion Committee.

Next to being on the Board, I work as a cleaner at elderly people’s houses. I have been working with elderly people for over four years now, and I don’t think I will ever quit. The job is so fulfilling and you are really giving back to the society, which I love! Besides working, I love to travel, read and to go out with friends! One thing you should know about me is that I do not drink, so I will always be your sober buddy (or Bob ;)). 

I am super excited for the upcoming year! If you ever have any questions, please feel free to come to me or email me at info@clio.nl / clio.secretaris@gmail.com!

Treasurer: Kaan Tu

Hello everyone!

My name is Kaan, and I have the great pleasure of being the Treasurer on the 38th board of Clio, so yes, that means I’m the (only) one who gets excited about spreadsheets, budget meetings, and balancing every last cent. As Treasurer, I’m responsible for managing Clio’s finances, supporting all committee treasurers with their budgeting needs, and making sure our events don’t accidentally bankrupt us. You’ll also find me as the Board Representative for the Social Impact and Travel Committee, two committees I’m very excited to work with this year! 

I started my Clio journey seven (!) years ago as a wee freshman and am currently finishing my master’s in International Relations. Don't worry I wasn't active all of the seven years, as I spent a few years in the far east, but safe to say, I’ve seen Clio from just about every angle, and I’m stoked to now help steer the ship. 

Outside the world of receipts and reimbursements, I’m always on the move. I dance, coach a competitive team, and run for fun, or at least for the serotonin. I also work as a photographer when I’m not making music. Film is another big love of mine, so if you're ever in the mood to overanalyze a movie or share a hot take, you know where to find me. 

Looking forward to meeting all of you! You can always reach me at: clio.penningmeester@gmail.com!


Hi!

I'm Esther and I'm the Commissioner of PR and Publications of the 38th Board of Clio. As such, I am in charge of the promotional material for Clio's events and services and I help administer the Clio website, posting all of Clio's events and pictures. I also manage Clio's social media presence, therefore I'm the person behind Clio's Instagram and Linkedin accounts! Besides this, I assist PR functionaries from all committees in fulfilling their tasks. I am also the Board Representative for Clio's Magazine (the Checks & Balances editorial staff), the Photo & Multimedia committee, and the Yearbook committee.

In my personal life, I love reading books, working on creative projects, spending time in nature, or being with friends. As I always say, I love "community time"!

I am really looking forward to this year, since I know I will be having an amazing time with Clio and all its members! If you ever want to get in touch or ask me any questions, you can always reach out via our social media platforms or email me at pr.publicaties@gmail.com.

Hi everyone,

I’m Simon and I will be the Commissioner of External Affairs of the 38th Board of Clio this year. I’m responsible for raising funds for the association and staying in contact with all Clio’s external partners. On top of that, I’m the board representative to the Conference and IRSP committee. When I’m not out chasing that bag, you can usually find me in the Attic with the rest of the Board. 

When I’m not busy with Clio (still waiting for this to happen) I love to cook dinner with friends, grab a drink in the city, and go on the occasional run. From time to time I also enjoy going to festivals and when I’m really ballsy (read: drunk) bust some moves in the Peperstraat. If you would like to get in touch, contact me at bedrijfscontacten@clio.nl 


Hello everyone!

My name is Eyla, and I am the commissioner of Internal Affairs of the Board! I am responsible for the internal functioning of the association, meaning I do a lot with the active members and Clio Alumni:) My tasks vary weekly but you can find me most often in the attic! Besides this I am also in charge of the IRIO alumni network and a board representative to the Event, Welcome, Masters and Sports committees!

Outside of Clio I spend most of my (day) time doing Yoga or playing sports with my housemates and enjoy the occasional walk/coffee in Nopla, whilst in the evening I’m usually in the city with friends! I also love to listen to music and enjoy festivals!

If you ever want to have a coffee, drink or join me for a run let me know I’m always up for it!
