Selections
Congrats to Leon who was returned to the ALAC.
To my friend Lito, Rafael Ibarra, on his selection to the ICANN Board,
heartiest congratualtions. Met Lito years ago when we served on Microsoft's
Partners in Learning Advisory Board. He's a good man.
Heartiest congrats as well to Christelle Vaval, our colleague from Haiti for
her selection to the ccNSO.

________________________________
Those selected will take up their positions after the end of ICANN's Annual
General Meeting, which will take place during the ICANN Public Meeting
scheduled for 18-22 October 2015 in Dublin, Ireland.
The NomCom is charged with recruiting and selecting a portion of ICANN's
leadership. The NomCom is mandated to ensure that ICANN's overall leadership is
diverse in geography, culture, skills, experience and perspective. The basic
criteria is that selectees are people of integrity, objectivity, sound
judgment, support decision-making within groups, work effectively in English,
understand ICANN's mission and operation, are committed to its success, have
experience in world affairs, contribute to cultural, professional and
geographic expertise, and can work long and hard, generally as volunteers, for
the global public trust.
An independent body at the community's service
Discussing the 2015 Nominating Committee results, Stephane Van Gelder, the
Chair of the 2015 NomCom, shared the following:
"As Chair, it is my honor, pleasure and duty to report that the 2015 Nominating
Committee has completed the task assigned to it by the ICANN Community and made
the selections shown above.
By the close of the application period on 15 March 2015, the 2015 Nominating
Committee had received 81 applications for the nine positions it was tasked
with filling.
Once this work was completed, the 2015 Nominating Committee was then called
upon to select a replacement for the position of North American ALAC
representative, following the resignation of its previous selectee to that
position and received nine applications for that position.
I want to thank the Nominating Committee members for working diligently through
these two separate processes. It is rare that a NomCom gets called back to
reselect for another position once its main slate for the cycle has been
decided. This year's members had to withstand the added pressure of this late
selection, whilst continuing to work as a group fully independent of ICANN's
SOs, ACs and the Board. They rose to this challenge and completed their
assigned tasks with aplomb and integrity.
Throughout the year, the Committee has reported on its processes through Report
Cards, video updates and documents published on its webpage
(https://www.icann.org/nomcom2015).
During this year's Annual General Meeting in Dublin in October, the Committee
will present the ICANN Community with a Final Report detailing its work and
providing in-depth data on the applications received."
Regional Breakdown
As noted above, the 2015 NomCom received 81 Statements of Interest from
candidates all over the world (12 female and 69 male) during its open
nomination period from 8 December 2014 to 15 March 2015.
The regional breakdown of this year's candidates is:
22 from Africa
10 from Asia/Australia/Pacific Islands
19 from Europe
22 from Latin America/Caribbean Islands
8 from North America
ALAC North America Region Selection Process
