<div dir="ltr">Dear all,<div><br></div><div>So, im writing just to let you know that we had two candidates - Pascal Bekono and Bolutife - and, given the lack of discussion here i ended up suggesting both to Philippe, Sebastian and Tomslin. Also, given this was not an internal NCSG process and mostly done at the level of GNSO, its kind of a strange position due to the lack of discussions with the broader SO on who will be our nominees (and id even say lack of information from GNSO leadership too). </div><div><br></div><div>On the "active member" discussion, I understand the points raised by Steph. I often come across candidacies of members who are only active within one Constituency and never really show up to PC or membership meetings, so thats a fair question or point to raise. And maybe a matter of attention to upcoming candidates for such positions is to be able to have a good relationship also with the SG given that being active at NCUC or NPOC doesnt necessarily mean the SG. </div><div><br></div><div>Best, </div><div>Bruna </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Sep 1, 2022 at 4:32 PM Bolutife Adisa <<a href="mailto:adisabolutifeo@gmail.com">adisabolutifeo@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div dir="ltr">Hello all,<br><br>@Stephanie Thanks for chiming in on the topic and sharing your valid concerns. <div><br></div><div>In this case, I believe you have rightly defined what active membership is or should be “… need to understand ICANN org and its constituent parts, policies, and procedures”. </div><div>Having participated in multiple ICANN meetings as a NextGen participant, and ICANN fellow and an EC member in NPOC, it is clear that I understand ICANN org’s structure, procedures, and policies and I’m capable of passing on the knowledge to newcomers. </div><div><br></div><div>While I might not have the wealth of experience that other colleagues may have in pen-holding for policy development process, I am aware that the role in question is not a policy development role but a mentorship/support role for newcomers in the space (otherwise I would have easily stepped aside for more policy-experienced colleagues to step in).

<p>Did we define what we mean by "active member"? I take it to mean
active on pdps. Perhaps I am wrong. Nextgen mentors need to
understand ICANN org and its constituent parts, policies, and
procedures. I am not a graduate of the nextgen program so perhaps
those who graduate from that program know all they need to know,
but I currently think that participation in the actual work of the
org is a requirement.</p>
<p>I do not know this person so please this is not meant as a
