Hi Analia,

Thanks for asking. Please see bellow what was shared by the CSCG outgoing
Chair, Ian Peter and who is overseeing the process. Should you have any
question, do not hesitate, I will be happy to share with the group.

Regards,
A

*CHAIR STRUCTURE: A Chair, and up to 2 Co-chairs, will be selected by CSCG
member representatives for two year terms. Each September (as necessary
when chair and co-chair member terms expire), the CSCG members will select
Chairs and Co-chairs. It is up to the CSCG to determine whether Chairs and
Co-chairs are selected from the CSCG membership, or whether mutually agreed
to representatives from broader civil society are approached to take on
these tasks. Where an elected Chair is a coalition representative, the
coalition will be given the option to nominate a replacement
representative.*

Here is my suggestion as regards an approach and timetable.


1. Nominations are now open.

2. Nominations to close Friday, September 30

3. Nominations can be for chair, co-chairs, or both.

4. You should feel free to discuss possible nominations within your
constituencies, if you so wish:  but if nominating someone from outside of
CSCG reps, please ensure that they are in agreement with being nominated
before advancing their name to the nomcom list.

5. Nominations of other CSCG member representatives can start now, as well
as suggestions of people who could be approached. You should feel free to
support nominations made by others if you feel so inclined so we can begin
to gauge the feeling of the room. At the close of nominations as well as
during nominations, it is appropriate for people to express opinions on the
nomcom list if they wish,  so that the vote when conducted is cognisant of
the various opinions being put forward.

6. On October 3 we commence a 72 hour private poll for Chair (unless we
have a clear choice by acclamation before then). The poll should run for
max 72 hours, and also include questions so that people can express early
voting preferences for co-chairs.

7. One a Chair is elected, that person can take over the process as regards
co-chairs. The results of the ballot might indicate that only one co-chair
is appropriate, or perhaps a follow up ballot might be appropriate. I think
the new Chair should be closely involved in any such decision consulting of
course with member reps; and there is no immediate rush to appoint
co-chairs.
