Call for Volunteers for Executive Board Election Code of Conduct Team

general meeting news participate

This is a call for volunteers from the membership to join the Executive Board Election Code of Conduct Team for the May 2024 General Meeting elections.

The Executive Board election of 2024 will be the fourth to have a Code of Conduct (CoC) for Executive Board Election candidates. This is a separate Code of Conduct to the RIPE NCC and RIPE community CoCs. This code has been established and is only in effect for confirmed candidates during the election process.

An Executive Board Election Code of Conduct Team was also established to evaluate reports of violations of the Code of Conduct. The team for 2023 was made up of six volunteers and the Executive Board would like to express its gratitude to Cynthia Revström, Arnold Nipper, Annie Yanyan Yang, Kris Edgar, Nat Morris and Sebastian Becker who carried out this important work.

The Executive Board would now like to ask for volunteers from the membership to be on the Executive Board Election Code of Conduct Team for the May 2024 election. The task of this team will be to evaluate any reports of violations of the election Code of Conduct by candidates. If the team confirms that a violation of the election Code of Conduct has taken place, disqualification of the candidate in question can take place.

If you are willing to participate in this role, please send a mail to <agm at ripe.net> by *6 March 2024*.

The Board will appoint members of the team from the list of those that volunteer. Members should not volunteer if they expect to become candidates in the election.

The Executive Board Election Code of Conduct is available.
