Appoints New GNSO Council Members</span></h2>
<p style="margin: 11.25pt 0in 0.0001pt;"><span>11
October 2009</span></p>
<p><span>At its 30 September Board
meeting, the ICANN Board of Directors appointed three individuals to
serve as
Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group (NCSG) representatives on the new
Generic
Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council:</span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span>Mohammed Rafik Dammak – Tunisia</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span>Rosemary Sinclair – Australia</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span>Debra Hughes – United States</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span>The Board's Structural
Improvements Committee (SIC) considered applications from a talented
and
diverse group of volunteers, conducted extensive due diligence,
carefully
reviewed the applicants, and recommended to the full Board the slate of
three
candidates to serve on the GNSO Council for the next two years. Under
the
terms of the NCSG transitional charter approved by the Board on 30 July
2009,
three of the six NCSG representatives on the new GNSO Council were to
be
selected/appointed by the Board of Directors. The newly structured
GNSO
Council will hold its first meeting in Seoul, South Korea on 28 October
2009. </span></p>
<p><span>The three individuals were
recommended by the SIC based on the combination of their skills,
experience,
background, knowledge, passion and ability to help build non-commercial
participation and contribute to the work of the GNSO. The committee
paid
particular attention to the candidates’ ability to contribute to
diversity of
geographic representation on the Council. </span></p>
<p><span>Collectively, the appointees bring
a wide range of skills and experience to the new Council. Mr. Dammak is
a
research student in Interdisciplinary Information Studies at Sakamura
Laboratory, University of Tokyo where he is conducting research on
ubiquitous
computing. He is an active participant in IETF, IGF, the Creative
Commons
community and several ICANN projects that have served to focus his
attention on
technology, IDNs and community participation matters. His work in the
IGF has
been directed towards issues involving public participation
capabilities and he
has many productive relationships throughout Africa and the Middle
East. </span></p>
<p><span>Ms. Hughes is currently
Senior Counsel for the American Red Cross (ARC), the world’s largest
humanitarian organization, where she advises the organization on
various
matters related to consumer privacy and consumer protection. She also
works
closely with the ARC’s information technology and information security
teams to
manage on-line matters and other Internet issues and she has broad
career
experience serving non-profit organizations. </span></p>
<p><span>Ms. Sinclair is the Chair of
the International Telecommunications Users Group (INTUG) and Managing
Director
of the Australian Telecommunications Users Group (ATUG). She is a
member of the
group responsible for recently creating the Australian Communications
Consumer
Action Network and has committed much of her recent efforts to
high-speed
broadband deployment in Australia and in other parts of the
Asia/Pacific
region. </span></p>
<p><span>The ICANN Board has approved
a comprehensive set of recommendations to improve the structure and
operations
of the GNSO. At its core, the objective of the GNSO review process has
been to
identify ways to improve the inclusiveness and representativeness of
the GNSO's
work while increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of the policy
development process. The restructuring of the GNSO Council is only one
of
several major components of the independent review/restructuring
effort. </span></p>
<p><span>This improvement effort is
part of ICANN's own ongoing commitment to evolve and improve all of its
activities, and follows extensive independent review efforts and
extensive
public consultation. </span></p>

30 September Board meeting can be found here - <a
