The board of the Gusen Memorial Committee (GMC) was newly elected at the general assembly on December 1, 2023 in the House of Remembrance of the Mauthausen-Gusen-St. Georgen Region of Awareness at St. Georgen/Gusen, Austria.

Mr. Reinhard Kaspar was unanimously elected as the new chairman of the GMC.
