[NA-Discuss] NARALO Submission on NomCom Rebalancing

[Greg Shatan [NARALO]]

Dear NARALO members,

ICANN Board Chair Tripti Sinha sent letters to each of the RALO Chairs (and
to other stakeholder group leaders) seeking feedback on the issues relating
to NomCom “Rebalancing” (see:  sinha-to-shatan-26apr23-en.pdf (icann.org)
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/sinha-to-shatan-26apr23-en.pdf>).
We will be preparing a response on behalf of NARALO.

The letter asked for input on the following questions:


   1.

    What does it mean to have a balanced NomCom at a point in time? For
   example, what criteria would you apply to measure or assess whether the
   NomCom is balanced? And further, how can one test whether or not the NomCom
   is balanced?
   2.

   Do you support the view that the current composition of the NomCom needs
   to be rebalanced? Please explain why or why not.
   3.

   How frequently does the balance need to be measured or assessed?
   4.

   How do you suggest that the NomCom’s composition be rebalanced?
   5.

   Who should conduct this work, and how should it be conducted?
   6.

   How would your community group prioritize consideration of this issue
   within your planning efforts?


We welcome your input and feedback on how to respond to these questions.
You can either respond directly to this email (please don’t change the
subject for easy tracking) OR you can share your comments (in “suggestion”
mode) in this collaborative Google doc:

Please provide your input no later than June 8, 2023. Thank you!

Best regards,


Greg
