We are pleased to announce that D6's Clymene Christoforou has been appointed the new chair of International Newcastle. International Newcastle works to promote international working within the city in the education, arts and culture, and sport sectors to create outward looking, welcoming communities. 

"From the communities that make our city their home, to the businesses that trade across international borders, from the work we do to connect our cities to other cities around the world, to the joint research we undertake to foster healthier, fairer and safer communities.  International Newcastle supports the extraordinary wealth of international experience, knowledge and understanding found in our city today and I am honoured to step into the role of Chair of the board of directors. As we navigate new relationships with Europe and the wider world, International Newcastle will work with the City Council, the education and cultural sectors, The Chamber of Commerce, consular colleagues, civil society organisations and others to maintain and grow our global reputation and offer a warm welcome to the world."- Clymene on her appointment
