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.</FONT></P>
