Dear All, 

On behalf of Maureen Hilyard, ALAC Chair, please note that the deadline to submit nominations for the Dr. Tarek Kamel Award for Capacity Building is this Friday, 21 August at 23:59 UTC.

ICANN first introduced the Dr. Tarek Kamel Award for Capacity Building in January to recognize ICANN community members for significant efforts in developing capacity in areas related to ICANN's Mission.

This annual award will be awarded to one individual during ICANN's Annual General Meeting, held in the fourth quarter each year. The ideal recipient will have at least five years of:

• Significant contributions to national, regional, or global capacity-building programs related to ICANN's Mission.
• Developing capacity-building programs that positively influenced the multistakeholder model and diversified participation at ICANN.

In addition:

• All nominations must include detailed information and documentation to demonstrate the nominee's fulfilment of the award criteria.
• Any ICANN community member or ICANN community group (e.g., Supporting Organization (SO), Advisory Committee (AC), or a SO/AC constituent group) may submit a nomination.
• All nominations must be submitted via the nomination form.
• Self-nominations are not allowed.

The ICANN Board will evaluate a shortlist of candidates. 

Please inform Maureen and At-Large staff of your suggested nomination by 20 August 2020 23:59 UTC.  Those nominating community members will need to submit their nominations via this nomination form by 21 August 2020 23:59 UTC.

Full Announcement available here.

Kind regards,

Staff
