ICANN’s Nominating Committee (NomCom) is responsible for the selection
of eight ICANN Board Members, two directors of the Public Technical
Identifiers (PTI) and for other selections as are set forth in the
Bylaws (see Article 8, Section 8.1).
The NomCom is also charged with appointing some members of the ALAC,
ccNSO Council and the GNSO Council. The NomCom complements the other
means for filling a portion of key ICANN leadership positions achieved
within the SOs and ACs.
As per the ICANN Bylaws (Article 8, Section 8.2), the ASO AC is pleased
to invite nominations for candidates from the “Internet Numbers
Community” to run for an open seat on the ICANN NomCom 2020 as delegate
of the ASO.
The term for the selected delegate will be one year starting in ICANN 66
in Montreal, Canada, in November 2019 (see Article 8, Section 8.3 for
term limits).
