Dear all, I humbly nominate Raymond Selorm Mamattah for AFRALO representative to ALAC.Raymond's contribution as a technology entrepreneur and advocate for digital rights and internet freedom in Africa cannot be over-emphasized.Through EGIGFA (of which he is the founder), Raymond Mamattah has organized several initiatives and programs aimed at promoting the use of ICTs and Internet governance across Africa. These include conferences, training workshops, and research projects on various aspects of e-governance and Internet governance in Africa. His footprints are at every corner of AFRALO.Ghanasig is one of the most vibrant SIGs in the ecosystem which is training several fellows from different African countries annually to effectively engage in the internet ecosystem/ICANN, and he is the master architect of the SIG in Ghana.His contributions to the several ICANN working groups he serves have been phenomenal and already putting Africa in a reputable perspective across the ecosystem. I have had the opportunity to work with him on Universal Acceptance (UA) Working group and I concluded that he is full of ideas and serving as an ALAC member will offer the best opportunity to do more of what he is best at; the brilliant ideas towards achieving organization's goals and leading to Africa's breakthrough in the ecosystem.He is well recognized for his work in promoting digital rights and internet governance in Africa. In 2019, he was named one of the top 50 digital transformation leaders in Africa by the Digital Transformation Congress.Raymond is a person fitter at representing Africa for the ALAC membership based on his skill set in the internet ecosystem and organizational matters across Africa in particular and across the globe.Kind Regards,AwalOn Wed, Apr 19, 2023, 6:56 AM Maud Adjeley Ashong Elliot via AFRI-Discuss <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:_______________________________________________Hello everyone,I would like to nominate the following people:Chair: Hadia El MiniawiVice Chair: Bram FudzulaniNomCom: Seun OjedejiRegards,Maud Ashong ElliotOn Wed, Apr 19, 2023 at 5:53 AM Thoko Miya via AFRI-Discuss <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:Dear AFRALO Members Staff, Afri discuss lists.I would like to second the nominations as followsChair: Hadia El MiniawiVice Chair: Bram FudzulaniNomCom: Seun OjedejiALAC Representatives: Prof. Aziz HilaliKind regardsThoko Miya--On Mon, 17 Apr 2023 at 18:46, ICANN At-Large Staff via AFRI-Discuss <afri-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> wrote:_______________________________________________Dear All,

IMPORTANT: Criteria for NomCom Delegates

Please read the Job Description for NomCom Delegates. Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2024 NomCom:
- Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws.
- The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission.
- NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment.
- The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours).
- All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually.
