[bestbits] Call for expressions of interest: 1net steering committee

[michael gurstein]

Jeremy,

 

Could you perhaps provide more detail and the specifics on which you relied
for this rather interesting notification "The strongest support was received
across all of the civil society networks.

 

Thanks,

 

M

Being sensitive to the fact that some people don't want to be overloaded
with information about procedural matters, whereas others want a maximum of
transparency in civil society processes, this is just a short update about
the call for nominations to the 1net steering committee, which the joint
civil society coordination group has been handling.  Feel free to ignore if
this is not of interest to you.

 

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):

 

            . Vladimir Radunovic

            . Marilia Maciel

            . Michael Gurstein

            . Rafik Dammak

            . Joana Varon

            . Matthew Shears

            . Carolina Rossini

            . Anja Kovacs

            . Anriette Esterhuysen

            . Nuno Garcia

            . Marie-laure Lemineur

            . Remmy Nweke

            . Klaus Stoll

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.
