LOS ANGELES – 14 December 2020 – Today, the Internet Corporation for
Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) opened the nomination period for the
ICANN Community Excellence Award. The closing date for submissions is 29
March 2021 23:59 UTC and the winner(s) will be announced at ICANN71.

Launched in 2014, the ICANN Community Excellence Award recognizes ICANN

Candidates will be evaluated by a panel of ICANN community members
appointed by the SO/AC chairs using a merit-based point system evaluated
against three criteria:

   1. Demonstrated ability to work across community lines with both
   familiar and unfamiliar ICANN stakeholders with the aim of building
   consensus.
   2. Facilitator of dialogue and open discussion in a fair and collegial
   manner, through the spirit of collaboration as shown through empathy, and
   demonstrating a sincere desire to engage with people from other
   backgrounds, cultures, and interests.

   and its overall effectiveness through volunteer service via working groups

About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global
Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an
address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That
address must be unique so computers know where to find each other. ICANN
helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across the world.
ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit corporation
with a community of participants from all over the world.
