[lac-discuss-en] LACRALO Candidates for the ABSC

[ICANN At-Large Staff]

Dear All,

The At-Large Selection design team is seeking candidatures from LACRALO for
the At-Large Board Member Selection Committee (ABSC).

The ABSC will assist the At-Large Director process by revising the At-Large
Board member candidatures and creating a short-list for the At-Large Board
Member election.

The ABSC will be composed of two representatives from each ICANN region and
a Chair. All ABSC members will need to confirm their willingness and ability
to dedicate significant time to the process.

You may find a list of ABSC candidates from all At-Large regions under
https://st.icann.org/alac-docs/index.cgi?at_large_board_selection_committee

If you are interested in joining the ABSC, please reply to this message.
Thank you.

 *********

What will the ABSC be doing exactly?

The ABSC is tasked with creating a public list of candidates for the
At-Large Board member position. To do so, the ABSC will not just passively
wait to hear from interested At-Large insiders, but will also identify and
solicit candidacies from people who would qualify and may be seen to fulfill
the positions.

There should be a diversity of choices in the list of candidates for the
At-Large Board member, but qualified people should not be excluded because
there are "too many" from any one region, gender, or other relevant
characteristic.

Through a process of questionnaires and/or interviews, the ABSC would reduce
the total list of applicants to some ³small² number of candidates. All
documents and deliberations of the ABSC shall be confidential and this
confidentiality shall continue past the existence of any particular ABSC.
