Great news. Way to go Heather!
I am extremely pleased to report to you that the Commercial Stakeholders Group and the Non-Commercial Stakeholders Group have jointly nominated Heather Forrest of the IPC as the Non-Contracted
Parties House candidate for Chair of the GNSO Council.
I think that this is a great moment for the IPC, the CSG, the NCSG, then NCPH and the GNSO. Our ability to work together and come to a common understanding (and a timely one) is critical
not only for our interests but for the future of the GNSO and the multistakeholder model. As with any multistakeholder exercise, this was the result of a process; in this case, we see that the process can bring us all to a positive result.
Congratulations, Heather! On to the election....
