Nominations to the ICANN Fellowship Selection Committee and Guidance on Outreach Goals
hi all, I am sending this note as ICANN org published an update on the fellowship program https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2018-08-13-en, which is asking SO/AC to: 1. Provide input for two-year outreach and promotion goals 2. Nominate ICANN Fellowship Program Selection Committee Members for two-year terms For the first item, the council can have a small team of volunteers to work on giving guidance regarding the goals. I am happy to volunteer to lead such an effort and looking forward to hearing of others want to join in order to fill the form (attached). We can use this opportunity to set goals for bringing specific needed expertise and skills as a diversity goal for example for those to participate in PDP WGs. For the second item, as SO the GNSO should appoint a member to the selection committee and we expressed previously the interest to be involved in such a structure. Usually, we task the SSAC to conduct such process but in this case, we got a time constraint here since the deadline is the 10th September. Best, Rafik
I also volunteer for such small team and as a member to the selection committee. Best, Martín

Many thanks, Rafik, for making sure that these issues around the Fellowship Program don't fall off our radar. Thanks also to Martin for volunteering. We need to appoint a GNSO (as opposed to GNSO Council) representative - which is not at all to say that a member of Council couldn't serve in this capacity, but merely that we need to ensure that the call for volunteers goes out to the entire GNSO community. The first step will be to develop and run the call for volunteers. I suggest after that we follow the process that we now have well established in instructing the Standing Selection Committee to review all applications received. The one difficulty we have is that we're a bit behind, and the deadline for notifying of our GNSO rep is Monday. We definitely can't get the call for volunteers out and applications done and reviewed by SSC in that time. Here's one option for a way forward - I'm happy to volunteer in my capacity as GNSO Chair to sit on the selection committee in the interim until the applications process has run its course (we'll get that underway immediately, depending on responses to this email). Please post your thoughts so that we can take appropriate action ASAP. Best wishes, Heather On Fri, Aug 31, 2018 at 9:04 AM Martin Pablo Silva Valent < mpsilvavalent@gmail.com> wrote:

Dear Heather, Thank you. I think it’s a sensible approach to make the GNSO Chair representing the GNSO while we (GNSO) are dealing the process of appointing a representative in accordance with our procedures. I support this suggestion. Cheers, Tanya On Wed 5. Sep 2018 at 14:12, Heather Forrest <haforrestesq@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for figuring a way out, Heather, I also agree. Expecting a call + selection completed by SOs/ACs in less than a month may not be that much of a challenge for the most agile, but for a post EPDP chartering GSNO it may be a lot to ask at the end of the summer season of the northern hemisphere. We’re lucky that the leadership can step in.

Heather, Great to know the deadline won’t be an issue. How do we Strat up the process of applications to the SSC? I also received interest of another GNSO Member, Claudio Lucena, who could work as well. Cheers, Martín

Thanks, Heather - I appreciate you serving as interim GNSO rep. I am also happy for the SSC to review all applications received for this position and to put forward to the Council a recommendation for whom should represent the GNSO on the Fellowship Program Selection Committee. However, I think we might need to discuss what we expect this representative to do. Representing the entire GNSO, when reviewing fellowship applications, is quite the task. Is it even feasible? We are not a homogeneous entity. Ayden
