Dear All,

NCUC has to appoint a new delegate to NomCom. Therefore, this is a call for application for NCUC members to apply for this position for the 2021 Term. As you may know, NCUC's NomCom appointee is Wolfgang Kleinwachter who has just finished his first term (FY20) as our delegate to the Nominating Committee.

The NomCom position is very important, as the independent committee is "tasked with selecting members of the Board of Directors and other key positions within ICANN's structure as are set forth in the Bylaws". Additionally, ICANN bylaws defines some specific criteria for all NomCom delegates that should be taken into consideration by candidates interested in joining the committee:

“Section 8.4. CRITERIA FOR SELECTION OF NOMINATING COMMITTEE DELEGATES

Delegates to the ICANN Nominating Committee shall be:

1. Accomplished persons of integrity, objectivity, and intelligence, with reputations for sound judgment and open minds, and with experience and competence with collegial large group decision-making;

2. Persons with wide contacts, broad experience in the Internet community, and a commitment to the success of ICANN;

3. Persons whom the selecting body is confident will consult widely and accept input in carrying out their responsibilities;

4. Persons who are neutral and objective, without any fixed personal commitments to particular individuals, organizations, or commercial objectives in carrying out their Nominating Committee responsibilities;

5. Persons with an understanding of ICANN's mission and the potential impact of ICANN's activities on the broader Internet community who are willing to serve as volunteers, without compensation other than the reimbursement of certain expenses; and

6. Persons who are able to work and communicate in written and spoken English.”

Other criteria (retrieved from the Nominating Committee email):

Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2021 NomCom:

  *   The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission.

  *   NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment.

  *   Eligibility Exception - Current ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.2 of ICANN’s Bylaws (https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8).

  *   The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours).

  *   All NomCom members should have the ability to travel and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all meetings).

During the 2021 term, the committee will be selecting (a) three new members of the ICANN Board of Directors, as well as (b) three regional representatives to the At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC), (b) two members of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council and (d) one member of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) Council.

As you gather from the criteria above, it is very important that the applicants for this position be active members of NCUC, involved with ICANN and its various working groups and show proven interest in NCUC work and understand the dynamics of ICANN and groups existing within ICANN.

Please write a statement of interest indicating how you fulfill the criteria mentioned in ICANN bylaws and tell us about your experience at NCUC and submit to me chair at ncuc.org<mailto:chair at ncuc.org> and cc  maryam.bakoshi at icann.org<mailto:maryam.bakoshi at icann.org> by June 18th 2020, deadline for application submission is 23h00 UTC.

Announcement will be made on June 19th 2020.

best,
