By Kevin MeynellSenior Manager, Technical and Operational Engagement

The MANRS community is looking for volunteers to serve on its new Steering Committee and is accepting nominations in anticipation of a November election.

The committee will lead the community toward collective responsibility for the resilience and security of the Internet’s global routing system. It will have seven positions with different term lengths.

The Call for Nominations is open now and will continue until 28 October 2021, 23:59 UTC.

Anyone is eligible to serve on the Steering Committee, including current members of the MANRS Advisory Group. Prospective candidates from MANRS participants may nominate themselves, while candidates from other companies or organizations are welcome to apply but must be nominated by a MANRS participant.

MANRS participants will vote in an online election from 3-5 November 2021.

If you would like to volunteer to take a leading role in an initiative that’s important to the resilience and security of one of the critical components of the Internet infrastructure, please fill in the nomination form before 28 October 2021. You can also nominate other people.
