The ALAC is currently accepting nominations for Board Liaison.

Timeline:

Nominations will be open from today for 2 weeks, until June 18^th  at midnight GMT. We have 1 week after that for the nominated persons to indicate their acceptance of the nominations (until June 25^th) and we will discuss the nominations in San Juan. Voting by the ALAC will be held immediately after the discussions end.  The result will be posted to the public  ALAC list after the vote closes. The new Board Liaison will take up his/her position at the end of the AGM in Marina Del Rey in October 2007.

The Board Liaison will serve for a term of one year starting from the closure of an Annual General Meeting and ending at the closure of the following Annual General Meeting.

 

Criteria for Board Liaison:

·        Shall normally be a person who is a current or former member of the ALAC, or is familiar with the activities and functioning of ICANN and of the ALAC;

 

·        Shall accept to serve on behalf of the ALAC by acting for the good of the entire Committee, working to bridge differences and build consensus, but also recognizing difference and enabling different opinions to be shared;

 

·        Shall accept, while acting in their capacity as ALAC officer, to put the collective views of the Committee always in front of their own.

 

Any questions can be addressed to me or to staff@alac.icann.org.
