ICANN NomCom Appointees Announced

August 6, 2011 by Michele Neylon

ICANN’s Nominating Committee announced their appointees last night.

The NomCom is charged with recruiting and selecting a portion of ICANN’s leadership. The NomCom is mandated to ensure that overall, ICANN’s leadership is diverse in geography, culture, skills, experience, and perspective. The basic criteria is that selectees are people of integrity, objectivity and sound judgment, can support decision-making within groups, can work effectively in English, have an understanding of ICANN’s mission and operation, are committed to its success, experienced in world affairs, contribute to cultural, professional and geographic expertise, and can work long and hard as volunteers in the global public trust.

The appointees are as follows:

ICANN Board of Directors:

Steve Crocker, United States (considering he’s the chairman of the board not re-appointing him might have been awkward!)

Judith Vasquez, Philippines

ALAC

Titi Akinsanmi, Nigeria

Rinalia Abdul Rahim, Malaysia

Carlton Samuels, Jamaica

GNSO Council

Lanre Ajayi, Nigeria

Thomas Rickert, Germany

ccNSO Council

Hong Xue, China
