Environmental Design Research Association Announces New Management & Executive Direct
Association Has Relocated, Too

Founded in 1968, the Environmental Design Research Association, or EDRA, is an international interdisciplinary organization focused on the social aspects of the environment.

In September, the association announced that Kristin Haskin would be their new executive director and Ewald Consulting, Inc. would be their new management company. Membership data, including registration for EDRA48, the annual conference, has been moved over to the new management company and members should see no interruption of their benefits.

In a statement, Lynne Manzo, chair of the board of directors, expressed confidence in Haskin's ability to run the organization. "Kris brings to EDRA more than 20 years of experience as an Association Professional for nonprofit organizations. Her creativity, vision, and organizational skills will help us lead EDRA toward a stable and promising future. More importantly, Kris gets EDRA."

"I'm looking forward to an exciting and productive new beginning for EDRA," she concluded.
