The At-Large Community Seeks Expressions of Interest for Candidates for Post of ICANN Board Seat</h2>

16 December 2013</p>
<p>
A call for Expressions of Interest (EoIs) is now open through December 26, 2013. This Call for EoIs is part of the process through which the user community within ICANN will appoint one voting member of the ICANN Board. While acting in a personal capacity as a member of the ICANN Board, this member must be able to reflect the users' point of view and interests in the debate and decision making undertaken within the ICANN framework.</p>
<p>
In seeking candidates for this post, ICANN's At-Large Community is looking for an individual with a broad international perspective and a background in Internet users' interests, consumer policy and/or civil society worldwide.</p>
<h3>
Information about the At-Large Community:</h3>
<p>
"At-Large" is the name of the community of individual Internet users involved in ICANN's policy development process. It currently consists of over 160 active At-Large organizations (called "At-Large Structures" or "ALSes"), representing the opinions of the global community of Internet users. At-Large provides a means through which individual end users of the Internet worldwide can participate in the matters on which ICANN works, such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>
Guidance on how to run Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs);</li>
<li>
How to introduce new gTLDs (such as .eco, .green and IDN TLDs); and</li>
<li>
How to implement a stable and fair transition from IPv4 to the next Internet addresses generation, IPv6.</li>
</ul>
<p>
The At-Large Board Candidate Evaluation Committee (BCEC) now calls for Expressions of Interest (EoIs).</p>
