Dear AP members, As you have seen in my previous e-mail (updates from our April call) and also from the e-mail from staff, currently The elections for APRALO leaders is open for nomination. You can view the space to see the nominations and eligibility for all. Nominations will be accepted up until 9 May. This is to let you know as well that as part of nomination procedure each current leaders (Chair, Vice-Chair, ALAC Member, NomCom appointee) were asked individually if they are willing to continue and taking into consideration that they all are eligible for re-election, all of them have indicated that they are willing to stand again and are making themselves available for their current positions. So, this will be noted in the wiki space by staff, that all current members indicated that they would like to continue. Meanwhile, all other nominations are welcomed. Best Siranush
