Feel free to ignore if this is not of interest to you.</div><div><br></div><div>Between the participating networks that discussed nominees (Best Bits, Diplo and NCSG - the IGC did not actively discuss, and APC did so through the other groups), the following pool of nominees was received (in no particular order):</div><div><br></div><div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Vladimir Radunovic<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Marilia Maciel<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Michael Gurstein<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Rafik Dammak<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Joana Varon<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Matthew Shears<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Carolina Rossini<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Anja Kovacs<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Anriette Esterhuysen<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Nuno Garcia<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Marie-laure Lemineur<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Remmy Nweke<br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>• Klaus Stoll</div></div><div><br></div><div>The strongest support was received across all of the civil society networks was for Rafik, Joana and Anja to be appointed to the 1net steering committee, and we are debating which other two members should be added to these. Amongst the criteria being considered are ability to represent civil society as a whole, ability to work collegiately with other stakeholder groups, and knowledge about internet governance issues - but all the liaisons are free to specify what criteria their constituents feel are important, so we can do that too.</div><div><br></div><div>We aim to finalise the decision today, so if you have thoughts relevant to the criteria or to the shortlisted nominees, feel free to add them to this thread or to email me privately, so that I can pass them on to the coordinating group.</div><div><br></div><div>Note again that this only relates to the 1net steering committee appointment. We are still liaising with the Brazilian organisers about the process to be used for nomination of civil society representatives to the two Brazil meeting committees and do not have final information about that yet. But I will write a separate thread about that.</div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
