[kictanet] Apply now for ICANN's Leadership Positions: Introducing the Nominating Committee (NomCom)

[Alice Munyua]

Dear all,

(apologies for cross posting)

Please see below an announcement below from ICANN's nominating committee.

They are seeking to fill leadership positions with people with skills 
and interest in  multi stakeholder policy development as well as 
internet governance in general. For example, the At Large Committee 
(ALAC) would be a very interesting entry point for people interested in 
a broad range of issues, ccNSO  (Country Code Names Supporting 
Organization) works mainly on  (country code top level domains) ccTLDs, 
while the   gNSO  focuses on policy development for  generic names.

Would be great if we could get more of us involved!

best

Alice
