Call for expressions of interest: INC

The International Nominations Committee is a committee of four people established by the Board to provide a transparent and independent process for selection of the Amnesty International Australia (AIA) delegation to the International Council Meeting (ICM) and for other international Committees and appointments

The Board is currently seeking expressions of interest from members of AIA to serve on this committee until the conclusion of the ICM in 2011.

The criteria for appointment to the Committee are as follows:

· knowledge and practical experience of ICMs and international meetings in AI;
· knowledge of AIA;
· a balance of the sexes;
· a balance in degree of association with the current National Executive Committee (the Board);
· proven good judgment, impartiality, and common sense in selecting people for tasks.

To be a member of the Committee you must be a current financial member of AIA and you are ineligible for consideration as an ICM delegate.

Members interested in serving on this Committee are invited to email a brief expression of interest addressing the criteria to karla_fallon@amnesty.org.au by 5 pm on Friday 26 March 2010.

Please note that membership on the Committee is unpaid and undertaken in a voluntary capacity.
