> Adiel Akplogan to Join ICANN as VP of Technical Engagement
>
>
> Role aimed at strengthening ties to the technical community
>
> 4 February 2015
>
> Veteran Internet technology expert Adiel Akplogan is joining ICANN in the newly created role of Vice President for Technical Engagement.
>
> Akplogan served most recently as the Chief Executive Officer of AfriNIC, the Internet Numbers' Resource Registry for Africa, a position he has held since 2004.
>
> "I'm delighted to welcome Adiel to ICANN," said Sally Costerton, Special Advisor to the President for Global Stakeholder Engagement. "He is a highly respected contributor to the Internet community and his experienced leadership will reinforce and deepen ICANN's long term participation in the technical community of which it is a critical part."
>
> Akplogan is among the original Internet pioneers in West Africa, where he has played a critical role in setting up and managing CAFENet, one of the first private Internet Service Providers in the region.
>
> "It's my sincere hope that I can help ICANN achieve the high level of operational excellence that it is aiming for," said Adiel. "We are all striving to maintain and improve a global communication and information system that will define our future on multiple levels."
>
> In his new position, Akplogan will help ICANN conduct technical engagement and outreach. He will also provide some valuable links to the ICT community on the African continent, since he was instrumental in establishing several technical coordination bodies such as the African Network Operators Group (AfNOG), the African ccTLD Managers Association (AfTLD), AfricaCERT and the Africa Internet Summit (AIS).
>
> Akplogan will be based in Montreal, Canada and will assume his new position on March 1.

> During 2015, we will hold several elections in our community as follows:

> Policy Development Working Group: one co-Chair.
> - November 2015: NRO-NC/ICANN ASO AC (one Representative)
> According to Section 9 of the AFRINIC by-laws, a Nominations Committee (NomCom) appointed by the Board must work to ensure that appropriate candidates are nominated to contest for open seats and that all elections are successfully conducted according to current procedures.
> The NomCom shall be composed of four members as follows:
> One member selected from within the AFRINIC Board
> Three members selected by the AFRINIC Board from the community.
> We are now looking for volunteers from the community to fill the three open positions on the 2015 NomCom. For fairness, volunteers are expected to not be from a region where a Board seat is up for renewal.
> Responsibilities of the NomCom are defined in section 9 of the AFRINIC bylaws and comprise of the following.
> Call for candidates for all open elections (above).
> Describe all criteria and qualifications for eligibility to stand for election.
> Where necessary, interview candidates prior to final candidate slate.
> Communicate the final list of candidates for any election.
>
> AFRINIC staff will provide logistical support to the NomCom throughout their mandate. Such support includes publication of the list of nominees, compilation of comments, mailing list moderation, website update, communication with nominees and other duties pertaining to the roles and responsibilities of the NomCom.
>
> NomCom members are expected to:
> Be neutral: Have no interest in the results of the elections.
> Be trusted members of the AFRINIC community.
> Have good knowledge of the AFRINIC business environment.
> Do their best to fulfill their responsibilities without financial remuneration.
> If you are interested to serve on the 2015 NomCom, please send your expression of interest, including a short biography, by email to legal at afrinic.net before Friday 16th February 2015 at 20:00 UTC.
