[rpd] Eligibility Criteria for PDWG chairs

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ]

Hi Daniel,

 

If you are a co-author, even if you “stop” being a co-author because you’re nominated as co-chair, clearly you have a strong position on the proposal. You can’t be neutral “so easily”.

 

By the way, “nominated” or “elected” ?

 

Nothing about this is in the PDP, but clearly is not a good thing in a so confronted PDWG. As said, it is a clear path for appeals.

 

Regards,

Jordi

I object to G as worded. I don’t think that was the discussion and will not be according to the PDP.

 

If I’m an author of a policy proposal, I can recuse myself, but that leaves a single chair, which is the college “sitting next” of the self-recused one. This is clearly prone to subjectivity, doubts about the consensus judgement, and open field for appeals.

My understanding is that anyone nominated to be a co-chair and has a policy proposal running, then he/she has let go of the policy as an author before he/she qualifies to sit as a Co-Chair.

 

 

I can understand a recusation of 1 person in a “group of 4 or more co-chairs” (to give an example), but not with just 2. Also, imagine the case where we have 4 co-chairs and 3 of them are authors of the same or different policy proposals … It is a mess, not a good neither desirable situation.

 

If you’re playing as an author, find, but then don’t play as co-chair “simultaneously”. If you plan to be candidate for co-chair, you need to stop working on proposals that may be in the game during your election/tenure. It is a very simple decision.

 

I can live with H, but I think it must be clarified if at elections time (I think so) or you need to step down if you stop residing in the region. Not sure if others also supported my perspective that “born in the region” must not be acceptable. Just imagine a family originated in Africa, but living in any other region, and during summer vacations a kid is born in any place in Africa, but is only coming to the region every few years. I don’t think that will be a valid candidate, as this person has no “real” day-to-day contact with the region, which is the only reason it is good to have a resident in the region, instead of being open to “any participant in the PDWG”.
