 Message sent on behalf of EURALO’s Chair and Secretariat

 

Dear EURALO members,  

 

The current EURALO Board term ends on 9 December 2019. EURALO's Chair and Secretariat would like to announce a call for nominations to fill Board positions for the next 2 years (10 December 2019 – 9 December 2021). This call is made in accordance with the EURALO Articles of Association and Selection and performance criteria for EURALO Board members 2015.

 

Please note the current Board will remain in place until the new Board is elected.

 

In addition, there is a need for Board members as a whole, to share responsibilities with the EURALO Chair and Secretariat in assuming the following topics:

 

  1. Legal issues
  2. Policy Development
  3. Communication including leading the work on the EURALO website/WIKI/Facebook page.
  4. Outreach with communities outside ICANN
     

Please note the rules and agreements applicable to this election at: http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/pipermail/euro-discuss/2015-November/004161.html. In accordance with these agreements, kindly note:

 

  1. The size of the EURALO Board will be 3-7 members, plus ex-officio, the EURALO Chair and EURALO Secretary;
  2. There should be a maximum limit of 1 Board member per country;
  3. As is the usual custom in votes involving people, votes will take place by secret ballot;
  4. The Board will be selected for a two-years-term;  not performing Board members can be recalled after one year to allow to be replaced by better candidates.

 

The EURALO Board should be balanced but EURALO has not reached a consensus on having direct absolute criteria for geographical (East/Western Europe) or gender criteria. As geographical and gender balance are important in our region, I ask you to consider these issues when making your selection.

 

Please submit your nominations and self-nominations starting today, Monday 9 December until Friday, 13 December 23:59 UTC by sending an email to the EURALO mailing list and copying At-Large staff staff@atlarge.icann.org .  All candidates who accept their nominations by the deadline above must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI). To read the Expression of Interest Statements for the 2017 Board members election, please visit: https://community.icann.org/display/EURALO/EURALO+Board+2017-2019+Workspace

 

 The online vote will start on Monday 16 December 2017 at 23:59 UTC until Friday 20 December 2019 at 23:59 UTC.

 

At-Large Staff will note the nominations on the following Wiki: https://community.icann.org/display/EURALO/EURALO+Board+2019-2021+Workspace
