Congratulations everyone. Clearly shows the strength of the network.

Just wonder, why simple civil society processes, which can be fairly
simple, based on mutual trust become so complicated.

Hope larger community is also happy with the decision :)

Keep up the great work everyone,

Best wishes and regards
Shahzad

HLC and 24 applications for EMC, drawn from a widely disseminated call
for nominations across various civil society networks, including IGC,
Best Bits, APC, NCSG, Diplo, and associated civil society networks , and
including nominations from other CS individuals as well. No nominations
were denied full consideration.
>>
>> The full list of candidates was posted on the main civil society
lists some time ago (let me know if you need a copy). We thank all the
volunteers who put their names forward ? this was an incredibly talented
field and making decisions on final candidates was subsequently a
significant challenge.
>>
>> The selections were made by a Nomcom consisting of Virginia Paque
(Diplo Foundation), Jeremy Malcolm (Best Bits), Chat Garcia Ramilo (APC)
and Robin Gross (NCSG). Ian Peter was an independent non voting Chair.
>>
>> We have attempted to find a balance among the candidates who best fit
our criteria for selection such factors as gender, geography, advocacy,
knowledge, expertise, and constituency. While we had challenges,
particularly in geography, we trust that the combination of candidates
broadly represent the civil society community involved in this process.
We believe that they will bring civil society perspectives and advocacy
to the discussions and ensure that important issues of concern are not
neglected.
