Dear Olivier, all I can assure you that the NomCom shares the same concern, and is determined to use the remaining time until the cut-off date 20 March for targeted outreach. I expect the next interim figures to be more balanced. Best, Yrjo Sent from my iPad On Feb 12, 2016, at 11:07 PM, "Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond" <ocl@gih.com> wrote:

Dear Yrjö,

thank you very much for this report card. I note with concern that yet again there is a serious deficit of applications from the Latin America & Caribbean region, as well as a terrible gender imbalance. Looking at prior years, this appears to have now become a trend. What is the Nominating Committee doing to resolve this problem? What concrete actions are going to be taken? I note there is an Outreach sub-committee and look forward to hearing about its recommendations, although I do not know whether gender balance issues are in its remit. Kindest regards,

Olivier
