Potential members should "have a deep understanding of and concern for the work being undertaken by ICANN, and an ability to think strategically, globally, and creatively about the challenges inherent in the ICANN Strategy Panels' mandate." Interested individuals should send their resume/CV to the email addresses affiliated with each of the specialty areas by 29 July 2013.
