Nomination Process:
Any member of the NCSG may nominate any NCSG active member either for the position of an NCSG GNSO Council Representative or for NCSG Chair.
Once nominated, the nominee is responsible for public acceptance of the nomination and for making a public statement that includes:
- Name, declared region of residence, gender and employment;
- Any conflicts of interest;
- Reasons for willingness to take on the tasks of the particular position;
- Qualifications for the position; and
- Statement of availability for the time the position requires.
- The nominee’s statement may also include any other information that the candidate believes is relevant.
** Also note that under the rules, no more than two (2) NCSG GNSO Council Representatives can be declared resident of the same geographic region as defined by ICANN. The 2 other continuing NCSG GNSO Councilors (those not up for election in 2014) are from the following regions: Africa, North America. This means there could only be one additional person elected from each of those already represented regions, and that would be determined by the top vote getter from that region in 2014.
** These terms all commence on 17 October 2014, at the conclusion of the 2014 Annual ICANN Meeting in Los Angeles.
