Objet : [governance] IGC ELECTION RESULTS [Welcoming the New Coordinators of
the IGC]



Calls for expressions of interest or nominations were made on the IGC
mailing list in June, 2013.By December 31st, 2013 both positions were
vacant. During the calls for election, we had received the following
nominations:



1) Deirdre Williams

2) Imran Ahmed Shah

3) Mawaki Chango

4) Mwendwa Kivuva



Prior to holding the elections, Mwendwa Kivuva withdrew leaving only three
remaining candidates. Prior to hosting the elections and preparing ballot
papers, we had to verify and check our subscriber database to ensure that
things were in order prior to sending the ballot papers. There were some
subscribers who had moved and so had inactive email accounts. We had to
clean these as well. We also noted that there were some who were subscribe
to the mailing list but did not have IGC accounts by registering on the
site. We received feedback from some of the subscribers that they did not
get ballot papers. The estimated number of subscribers to the mailing list
is around 600. The estimated number of account holders who are both
subscribed to the mailing list and have IGC accounts is around 400. The
number of people who voted was 276. During the elections, we received “Out
of Office” responses from a few.



Following last year’s elections and from feedback from the community, this
year we introduced the abstention category allowing people to not select a
candidate. To all those who exercised their right to vote or to abstain,
thank you. Special thanks to ALL the amazing candidates who participated.
Special thanks to Imran Ahmed Shah for his continuous commitment to make a
difference in his community in Pakistan and also in global forums.



 Congratulations to Deirdre Williams who will serve the two year term
replacing me. Congratulations to Mawaki Chango who will serve the one year
term replacing Norbert Bollow. I am pleased to formally hand over and now
declare the elections closed. To the new coordinators, I wish you wisdom,
good energy, strength as you navigate the waters ahead.

Last but not least I would like to thank Chaitanya Dhareshwar and Jeremy
Malcolm for being superstars in facilitating the elections. The elections
was carried out in accordance with the Charter.



Thank you all.
