<h3>An Independent Body at the Community’s Service</h3>
<p>Zahid Jamil, the Chair of the 2018 Nominating
Committee, shared the following statement about
the 2018 Nominating Committee and its results:
<br>
“I am pleased to announce that the 2018 Nominating
Committee has completed the task assigned to it by
the ICANN community. The selection of all
positions shown above was finalized by the
Nominating Committee at ICANN62 in Panama City,
Panama. Selections for all Board positions were
decided unanimously.</p>
<p>I want to thank the Nominating Committee for its
work and dedication, in working constructively and
efficiently together to reach final agreement.
<br>
I would also like to thank the Chairs of the
Advisory Committees, Supporting Organizations,
Stakeholder Groups and Constituencies for their
support with outreach and recruitment as well as
theirs and the Board’s assistance in identifying
criteria for the positions to be filled by the
NomCom this year. I encourage the community to
continue its outreach activity to assist the 2019
NomCom in recruiting candidates for selection next
year.</p>
<p>It is my belief that the improvements of the
process implemented this year, in part based upon
recommendations of previous years, played an
integral role in ensuring the efficiency as well
as the integrity and resilience of the Nomcom. In
particular, the effect of the face-to-face
meeting, the early planning, setting criteria in
advance, focus on recruitment resources, greater
communication (including multiple visits by and to
the ACs and SOs by the NomCom) played a very
constructive role - just to mention a few. <br>
I would also like to thank the Chair of the Board,
the Board Governance Committee, the General
Counsel’s Office, and in particular the stellar
staff that supported the NomCom this year. Last
but not least I would like to thank Damon Ashcraft
and Hans Petter Holen for supporting me on the
Leadership Team throughout the year.” </p>
<p>During ICANN63 in Barcelona, the Nominating
Committee will present the ICANN community with a
final report detailing its work and providing
in-depth data on the applications received.</p>
<h3>Regional Breakdown of Applicants</h3>
<p>The 2018 Nominating Committee received 109
applications from candidates all over the world
(33 women and 76 men) during its nomination
period, which took place from 31 January 2018 to
19 March 2018.</p>

corporation with a community of participants from
all over the world.</p>
