> Those selected will take up their positions after the end of ICANN's
> Annual General Meeting, which will take place during the ICANN Public
> Meeting scheduled for 18-22 October 2015 in Dublin, Ireland.
>
> The NomCom is charged with recruiting and selecting a portion of ICANN's
> leadership. The NomCom is mandated to ensure that ICANN's overall
> leadership is diverse in geography, culture, skills, experience and
> perspective. The basic criteria is that selectees are people of integrity,
> objectivity, sound judgment, support decision-making within groups, work
> effectively in English, understand ICANN's mission and operation, are
> committed to its success, have experience in world affairs, contribute to
> cultural, professional and geographic expertise, and can work long and
> hard, generally as volunteers, for the global public trust.
> An independent body at the community's service
>
> Discussing the 2015 Nominating Committee results, Stephane Van Gelder, the
> Chair of the 2015 NomCom, shared the following:
>
> "As Chair, it is my honor, pleasure and duty to report that the 2015
> Nominating Committee has completed the task assigned to it by the ICANN
> Community and made the selections shown above.
>
> By the close of the application period on 15 March 2015, the 2015
> Nominating Committee had received 81 applications for the nine positions it
> was tasked with filling.
>
> Once this work was completed, the 2015 Nominating Committee was then
> called upon to select a replacement for the position of North American ALAC
> representative, following the resignation of its previous selectee to that
> position and received nine applications for that position.
>
> I want to thank the Nominating Committee members for working diligently
> through these two separate processes. It is rare that a NomCom gets called
> back to reselect for another position once its main slate for the cycle has
> been decided. This year's members had to withstand the added pressure of
> this late selection, whilst continuing to work as a group fully independent
> of ICANN's SOs, ACs and the Board. They rose to this challenge and
> completed their assigned tasks with aplomb and integrity.
>
> Throughout the year, the Committee has reported on its processes through
> Report Cards, video updates and documents published on its webpage (
> https://www.icann.org/nomcom2015).
>
> During this year's Annual General Meeting in Dublin in October, the
> Committee will present the ICANN Community with a Final Report detailing
> its work and providing in-depth data on the applications received."
>
> Regional Breakdown
>
> As noted above, the 2015 NomCom received 81 Statements of Interest from
> candidates all over the world (12 female and 69 male) during its open
> nomination period from 8 December 2014 to 15 March 2015.
>
> The regional breakdown of this year's candidates is:
>
> 22 from Africa
> 10 from Asia/Australia/Pacific Islands
> 19 from Europe
> 22 from Latin America/Caribbean Islands
> 8 from North America
