Please react with your comments and suggestions so we can send it to the NCSG list as soon as possible. Thanks Marilia Dear members of NCSG, Our stakeholder group needs to select representatives for two positions: 1. One representative at the Civil Society Coordination Group (CSCG) 2. Two members (primary and alternate) to the GNSO Review Working Group This is call for volunteers who would be willing to serve on these positions. Statements of Interest should be sent to the NCSG list until the *3rd of September 11:59 UTC*. Please on the subject line: "SOI [your name] CSCG" or "SOI [your name] GNSO review". The selection process will be conducted by the members of the NCSG Policy Committee by means of finding rough consensus. The criteria that will be used to evaluate the candidates is explained in each of the sections below. * CSCG - MEMBER REPRESENTATIVES* For more info about the job of the CSCG, please do refer to their website <http://internetgov-cs.org/>. The new IGC Rep will serve for a period of 2 years starting September 2016 (to September 2018) and I will be stepping down from this role next year (in September 2017) after we have elected a new Co-coordinator in replacement of Analia (whose term expires in January 2017). Description: This position will not always require much of your time though it can happen during Nomcoms or working groups. So we need someone who knows a lot about IGF, MAG selection process and understands civil society in the IG area as a whole. We need someone who has been active on the IGC for quite a while and who can speak our positions. Role of Representatives: The duties of members are to: 1. Consider the interests of civil society as a whole, 2. Serve on Nomcoms regularly as required, 3. Communicate with their coalitions on CSCG developments. The Statement of Interest (SOI) will have this info: • Name, declared region of residence, gender and employment • Reasons for willingness to take on this task (max 200 words) • Qualifications for this position (max 200 words) • Statement of availability for the time the position requires (max 200 words) • The nominee’s statement may also include any other information the candidate believes in relevant (max 200 words). *MEMBERS IN GNSO REVIEW WORKING GROUP* *In Brief* The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council adopted the Charter <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gnso-review-charter-11jul16-en.pdf> of the GNSO Review Working Group during its meeting on 21 July 2016. This Working Group is tasked to develop an implementation plan for the GNSO Review recommendations <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/review-feasibility-prioritization-25feb16-e…> which were recently adopted <https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2016-06-25-en#2.e> by the ICANN Board. This is the Call for Volunteers to join this Working Group. Anyone interested in the GNSO Review and contributing to the development of the implementation plan and subsequent implementation is encouraged to volunteer. *What This Working Group Will Do* Per the GNSO Review Working Group Charter <http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/gnso-review-charter-11jul16-en.pdf> the GNSO Review Working Group will be responsible for developing an implementation plan, containing a realistic timeline for the implementation, definition of desired outcomes and a way to measure current state as well as progress toward the desired outcome for the GNSO Review recommendations adopted by the ICANN Board (thirty-four (34) recommendations of the Final Report <https://www.icann.org/zh/system/files/files/gnso-review-final-summary-15sep…> of the Independent Examiner (i.e. all recommendations excluding recommendations 23 and 32). This implementation plan is to be submitted for approval to the GNSO Council, followed by consideration by the ICANN Board. Following the approval of the implementation plan, the Working Group is also expected to execute and oversee the implementation of the GNSO Review recommendations unless specified differently in the implementation plan. The GNSO Review Working Group will also be responsible for considering any new requests by the GNSO Council concerning issues related to the GNSO Council processes and procedures and to Working Group guidelines that have been identified either by the GNSO Council, or a group chartered by the GNSO Council, as needing discussion. However, the first priority of the Working Group will be the development of an implementation plan and the subsequent implementation of the GNSO Review recommendations. Timeline and Deliverables The GNSO Review Working Group is expected to deliver the implementation plan to the GNSO Council for consideration at the GNSO Council meeting at ICANN57 at the latest in order to meet the Board set objective of ‘an implementation plan, containing a realistic timeline for the implementation, definition of desired outcomes and a way to measure current state as well as progress toward the desired outcome, shall be submitted to the Board as soon as possible, but no later than six (6) months after the adoption of this resolution’i.e., December 2016. *How to Join* Each GNSO Stakeholder Group and/or Constituency will identify one primary and one alternate member to serve on the GNSO Review Working Group. In addition to these appointed members, anyone interested will be able to join this working group as a participant or observer. Please note that participants are expected to attend conference calls and to actively participate in online discussions. Observers can follow the group's work on the mailing list but can neither send to the mailing list nor participate actively in the calls.
