[Iyrp-gcg] Nomination for co-chair of IYRP ISG

[Flintan, Fiona (ILRI)]

HI Jim! Good to hear from you!!

Igshaan,

I support nominations for both Enkhie and Tungaa. But Igshaan I think it would be helpful if you could let us know what is the procedure for deciding (voting I hope) for a new chair.  Recently we had a good experience in the European group where we:

  1.  Received nominations by a set date
  2.  Those nominated confirmed whether they wished to accept that nomination or not
  3.  Those that accepted presented their credentials, experience and reasons for wanting to chair
  4.  Voting then took place (a blind voting)
  5.  The winning candidate was announced.

[Engin can say if I missed anything!]

Can I suggest we follow a similar process with clear timeline for each step e.g. a clear date for nominations to be received by etc. and with adequate time for each step….

Best
Fiona

Dear IYRP GCG

We have a formal nomination from Munkhnasan Nasaa who has nominated Ms.Enkh-Amgalan Tseelei  from Mongolia for the IYRP ISP co-chair position. Please pursue her details and CV and let us know whether you endorse or object to the nomination.

May I have your feedback by 27 Oct 2023.

Nore that we will also entertain more nominations and if we are in a position to do so, we can appoint an additional co-chair, i.e. then we will have three co-chairs. This is because we are moving closer to 2026 and the workload will be more for the co-chairs and basically for everyone who is involved in IYRP activities.

Kind regards
Igshaan

Dear GCG members
I hope this finds you well. May you all know about Maryam's decision to step down as co-chair of ISG. It is important to acknowledge the contribution of our experienced co-chair to the UN declaration on IYRP.  I appreciate ISG efforts in finding a suitable replacement.
I am writing to officially nominate Ms.Enkh-Amgalan Tseelei  from Mongolia for a co-chair on the IYRP ISG. I firmly believe that  Ms.Enkh-Amgalan Tseelei possesses the skills, dedication, and vision necessary to make significant contributions to ISG. She has demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities and a deep commitment to the goals and values of the UN declaration on IYRP.  I have had the pleasure of working closely with her on several activities, where I witnessed her ability to collaborate effectively, think critically, and drive results.
Please feel free to reach out if you require any additional information regarding  Ms.Enkh-Amgalan Tseelei's qualifications or if you would like to discuss this nomination further.

Thank you for your time and consideration

The CV of Ms.Enkh-Amgalan Tseelei is an attachment.
Best regards:
