applications for HLC and 24 applications for EMC, drawn from a widely
disseminated call for nominations across various civil society networks,
including IGC, Best Bits, APC, NCSG, Diplo, and associated civil society
networks , and including nominations from other CS individuals as well. No
nominations were denied full consideration.</font></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN:0cm 0cm 10pt;LINE-HEIGHT:13pt"><span><font face="Arial"><font style="FONT-SIZE:10pt">The full list of candidates was posted on the main civil
society lists some time ago (let me know if you need a copy). We thank all the
volunteers who put their names forward – this was an incredibly talented field
and making decisions on final candidates was subsequently a significant
challenge.</font></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN:0cm 0cm 10pt;LINE-HEIGHT:13pt"><span><font face="Arial"><font style="FONT-SIZE:10pt">The selections were made by a Nomcom consisting of

Ramilo (APC) and Robin Gross (NCSG). Ian Peter was an independent non voting
Chair.</font></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN:0cm 0cm 10pt;LINE-HEIGHT:13pt"><span><font face="Arial"><font style="FONT-SIZE:10pt">We realise that some aspects of these selections will be
controversial. We have attempted to find a balance (among the candidates who
best fit our criteria for selection) between such factors as gender, geography,
advocacy, knowledge, expertise, and constituency. Geography in particular was a
challenge in finalising our HLC candidates – but we did note very strong support
from a number of prominent third world centred organisations and individuals for
Louis Pouzin, and trust that the perspectives and advocacy he will bring to the
discussions will ensure that important issues of concern to many members of
civil society are not neglected.</font></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN:0cm 0cm 10pt;LINE-HEIGHT:13pt"><span><font face="Arial"><font style="FONT-SIZE:10pt">Biographical details are below.</font></font></span></p>
