Dear All,

I am sending you a reminder about this announcement:

https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2021-01-25-en

LOS ANGELES – 25 January 2021 – Today, the Nominating Committee
(NomCom) of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers
(ICANN) invites interested individuals to submit applications for key
leadership positions within ICANN. Selected individuals will have a
unique opportunity to work with accomplished colleagues from around the
globe to help shape the Internet's technical coordination and policy
development. The deadline to submit applications is 18 March 2021 at
23:59 Universal Coordinated Time (UTC).

We are inviting applications for the following positions:

  	* Three members of the ICANN Board of Directors.
	* Three regional representatives to the At-Large Advisory Committee
(ALAC) – one each representing the Africa region, Asia, Australia, and
Pacific Islands region, and Latin America and Caribbean region.
	* Two members of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO)
Council – one representing the Contracted Parties House and one
representing the Non-Contracted Parties House.
	* One member of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO)
Council.

Guided by the broad public interest, those selected will work to fulfill
ICANN's mission to coordinate the global Internet's system of unique
identifiers, and in particular, to ensure its stable and secure
operation. The selected leaders will make a valuable public service
contribution toward ensuring the stable and secure operation of the
Internet's unique identifier systems.

Qualifications

Fluency in English is a requirement for all positions.

Other qualifications, skills, and time commitments vary depending on the
position. For information, visit the NomCom webpage [1].

Each ICANN Board member has the option to receive compensation in
accordance with the resolution passed by the Board on 30 July 2014, but
it is not required (See Board Member Compensation [2]). The remaining
positions are voluntary.

Application Deadline and Process

There is an online candidate portal  [3] to submit applications. All
applications are confidential.

For full consideration, the NomCom must receive applications by 18 March
2021, 23:59 UTC. Candidate applications that remain incomplete at the
end of this period will not be considered.

Following receipt of the applications, the NomCom will consider all
applicants and select a shortlist of qualified candidates.

Selections are expected to be announced in August 2021. Successful
candidates will assume their positions at the conclusion of ICANN72
Annual General Meeting in October 2021.

Meetings, Travel, Reimbursement, and Compensation

These positions require regular participation in virtual meetings via
telephone and Zoom. The positions may involve significant international
travel when pandemic-related travel restrictions lift. Reasonable direct
and properly documented expenses incurred in the course of service by
Board Directors and volunteers will be reimbursed.
