>> The representatives were chosen from a field of 33 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.
>>
>> 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.
>>
>> The selections were made by a Nomcom consisting of Virginia Paque (Diplo Foundation), Jeremy Malcolm (Best Bits), Chat Garcia Ramilo (APC) and Robin Gross (NCSG). Ian Peter was an independent non voting Chair.
>>
>> 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.
