Stefan Amirell Update, April 26, 2024 On behalf of the ICHS/CISH Board, we would like to inform all members that we have been following the evolving situation in the Middle East with particular attention and concern since October 7, 2023. In light of the ongoing escalation, we have agreed that there are no conditions to prepare for the 2026 Congress in Jerusalem. The Board, in agreement with the Historical Society of Israel, decided to postpone the ICHS/CISH Congress until 2028 and to hold a Congress dedicated to the centenary of ICHS/CISH in 2026. At the General Assembly in Tokyo on October 25, 2024, all members will discuss how and where to hold the Centennial Congress. The General Assembly will take place at the Kasumigaseki Campus (Small Campus), Teikyo University, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, October 25, 2024, from 9 am to 5pm. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
