[AFRINIC-Announce] Nomination Committee Community Update

[AFRINIC Communication]

Dear Esteemed Community Members,

The NomCom would like to express its sincere appreciation to every member of the community for your strong response and interest in the recent call for candidates for the AFRINIC Board of Directors.

The call for candidates officially closed on Tuesday, 2nd September, 2025 with 29 valid submissions received.

Since the opening of the call, the NomCom has been carefully evaluating all submissions. Together with the election committee, we are verifying that each nominee is supported by at least two different community members, that each nominator and seconder is of good standing, registered before 19 September 2023, and that the regional criteria are met.

In addition, all nominees who meet both the minimum eligibility requirements as well as the specific eligibility criteria are undergoing due diligence and background checks. The final slate of candidates will be published once all background checks are completed.

We thank you once again for your continued support. An update regarding the publication of the final slate of candidates will be shared early next week. 


Sincerely,
NomCom Chair
Hadia Elminiawi
(On behalf of the NomCom Team)
