[seedig] Partial elections for SEEDIG Executive Committee: Call for volunteers for Election Committee & Election calendar

[sorina.teleanu at seedig.net]

Dear SEEDIG community,

As announced previously on the mailing list, a partial election process 
for two seats on the Executive Committee (currently occupied by Lianna 
Galstyan and myself) is due, in line with the Executive Committee Terms 
of Reference (ToR) [1]. SEEDIG community members who meet the criteria 
outlined in art 6.12 of the ToR are eligible for election for the two 
seats.

According to art. 6.1, 6.2 and 6.5 in the ToR, we are hereby launching 
this partial election process by announcing the election calendar and 
launching a call for volunteers to serve on the Election Committee.

1. Election calendar

Please find here the calendar for the overall election process: 
https://seedig.net/partial-elections-2021/#calendar.

2. Call for volunteers to serve on the Election Committee

As per art.6 - section B of the ToR, the election process is to be 
managed by a three-member Election Committee. The main tasks of the 
Committee are outlined at 
https://seedig.net/partial-elections-2021/#committee [2].

SEEDIG community members willing to volunteer for the Election Committee 
are invited to express their interest via this mailing list, by Friday, 
15 January 2021, end of day. A simple expression of interest is enough, 
no elaborated motivation letters are required.

Kindly note that the seats on the Election Committee are to be filled in 
on a first come first served basis. Those who plan to run for elections 
are disqualified from volunteering or appointment on the Election 
Committee. The Committee may also include observers from among SEEDIG 
partners/supporting organisations (as per art. 6.8).

With this, the election process is officially open. More detail about 
the process - including a set of guidelines and frequently asked 
questions - are available on the dedicated page: 
https://seedig.net/partial-elections-2021 [3]. Should you have 
questions, please raise them via this list.

Best regards,

Sorina

(on behalf of the Executive Committee)
