Call for volunteers Councillors for ICANN Ethos Award Committee 2017
Dear all, As you will recall, one of the topics on 15 December Council call was the call for volunteers to be member of the Ethos Award Committee. ICANN intends to continue with the Ethos Award following the successful efforts carried out in London, Buenos Aires and Helsinki and the positive feedback received from the selection panels. ICANN has reaffirmed that the award will be an annual award to be presented during the welcome reception of the Policy Forums. Following the framework used for the previous awards, ICANN has requested the ccNSO Council to identify two (2) interested ccTLD community members by 13 January 2017 who, together with members from other communities, will help select the recipient(s) of the award. To achieve this dates this call for volunteers will close by 6 January 2017, noon UTC Moving forward panelists could serve a maximum of two consecutive terms on the selection panel to ensure diversity and variety of input and equal opportunity among community members to take part in this effort. Last year Nigel and Demi were the ccNSO representative on the Ethos Award committee, and, as you will recall, the Ethos Award was granted to Keith at the Helsinki meeting in June. This year the ccNSO may appoint up to two members again. In order to ensure continuity a staggered approach: · Nigel and Demi, could you be so kind to resolve who of you will stay on, assuming at least one of you will want to continue to do this. Please inform the list accordingly by 6 January 2017. · For the other, second seat on the panel could at least one of the Councillors volunteer or suggest a person from your region and inform the secretariat by 6 January 2017. If there will be more than one candidate, the second candidate will be selected by Council using the usual method. Finally, to present the award at ICANN 59, ICANN has recently announced the opening of the recipient nomination period (see: https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2016-12-12-en ). That nomination period will run through to the 20th of March 2017 for nominations to be submitted from the full ICANN community. Kind regards, Bart
