Thanks Jonathan for your continued support and confidence in my ability to serve on the ALAC ALT. I graciously accept the nomination. CCC On Thu, 2 Oct 2025 at 19:06, Jonathan Zuck via ALAC <alac@icann.org> wrote:
TL;DR
My inclination is to the leave the ALT alone, for the next year, while asking Adebunmi Akinbo to take the seat vacated by Bukula Oronti. If you want to make different nominations, you have until October 15th.
Dear ALAC,
I would like to issue a call for nominations for the members of the ALAC Leadership Team (ALT) for the period of 2025 AGM-2026 AGM, which will be my final year as ALAC Chair.
The terms of the 2025-2026 ALT will begin at the end of the 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) until the end of the 2026 AGM.
As the ALAC Chair, I will automatically take the North American ALT slot.
This call is to appoint the ALT slots for the four remaining regions.
I would like to nominate the following continuing or incoming ALAC Members for the open ALT positions.
· Africa – Adebunmi Akinbo
· Asia, Australia, and Pacific Islands – Justine Chew
· Europe - Natálie Terčová
· Latin America and Caribbean Islands – Claire Craig
Please let me know if you would like to nominate any other continuing or incoming ALAC Member by sending a message to the ALAC list (see: alac@atlarge-lists.icann.org ).
Nominations may be made by any current ALAC Member. Nominees need not be an ALAC Member at the time of the nominations but must have an expectation of being an ALAC Member after the completion of the upcoming ICANN84 Meeting.
This selection is carried out in accordance with the ALAC Rules of Procedure (ROPs) Section 17.3 ( ALAC Rules of Procedure <https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/2262672/ALAC%20RoP-Revision...> - Short URL https://tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2022-08 [tinyurl.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/tinyurl.com/ALAC-RoP-2022-08__;!!PtGJab4!...>).
Requirements for ALAC Members can be found in Section 6 of the ALAC RoPs. In short, ALT Members are expected to attend all ALAC meetings. I would also like ALT Members to attend the At-Large Consolidated Policy Working Group and the At-Large Operations, Finance and Budget Working Group meetings. ALT Members should be very responsive and thoughtful to e-mail requests and discussions. By mutual agreement, ALT Members may take on additional roles. Vice-Chairs are expected to take on proportionally larger responsibilities. All ALT activities are carried out solely in English.
Please note the following nomination schedule below.
*Nomination Schedule: *
· The nomination period is now open and will close on Thursday, 9 October 2025 at 23:59 UTC.
· Nominations need not be seconded.
· Nominations, other than self-nominations, must be accepted by Wednesday, 15 October 2025 at 23:59 UTC.
· Nominations and acceptances should be sent to the ALAC list [ alac@atlarge-lists.icann.org ]
· Staff will forward all acceptances to the ALAC-announce list [ alac-announce@atlarge-lists.icann.org ]
· In accordance with ALAC RoPs 16.3, following the close of the nomination period and the acceptance or rejection of all nominations, Candidates from regions where the position is not contested will be declared to have won by acclamation. If there are multiple candidates from any region, the candidates, in conjunction with the ALAC, will be given the opportunity to resolve the situation. Failing that, a secret vote of the ALAC will decide the winner.
Thanks,
Jonathan
