On 10 December 2015 ICANN announced the opening of the nomination period for 
ICANN's 2015 Multistakeholder Ethos Award Program. The nomination period has 
been extended and will close on 20 March 2015. This award program seeks to 
recognize long-standing community members who have served in leadership roles 
in multiple ICANN working groups or committees and demonstrated collaboration 
with different supporting organizations and/or advisory committees.

The Multistakeholder Ethos Award recognizes ICANN participants who have deeply 
invested in consensus-based solutions, recognized the importance of ICANN's 
multistakeholder model of Internet governance, and contributed in a substantive 
way to the higher interests of ICANN's organization and its community.

A panel of community members has convened to help review all community 
nominations and determine the best candidate(s) for the award.

The decisions of the selection panel will be made based on the following 
criteria:

  1.  Demonstrated multistakeholder volunteer service via working groups or 
committees.
  2.  Demonstrated spirit of collaboration through engagement with other 
community members with the aim of consensus building.
  3.  Demonstrated facilitator of dialogue and open discussion in a fair, 
cordial and collegial manner.
  4.  Demonstrated additional devotional factors exhibited by time spent 
supporting ICANN's multistakeholder model and its overall effectiveness.

Candidates for the award will demonstrate at least five years of participation 
in the ICANN Community.

The nomination period for community nominees will close on 20 March 2015.

Community members interested in submitting a nomination are invited to send an 
email toethosaward2015@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:ethosaward2015@xxxxxxxxx> including:

  *   Name of nominee.
  *   Community of nominee.
  *   Reasons for nomination.

Please note that the reasons outlining the candidate's merit for the nomination 
may be as brief or as long as required.

Award recipient(s) will be announced in June 2015 at ICANN 53 in Buenos Aires
