The .ORG Advisory Council has been a valuable global

services and support. The Council continues to provide
PIR with beneficial recommendations to improve registry
operations and support the non-commercial .ORG
community. Eight of the twenty one Advisory Council

seeking individuals with significant Internet leadership
experience within the Non-profit, NGO, Civil Society
and Domain Name arenas who represent the broad
and geographically diverse spectrum of the global
noncommercial community.

Interested individuals are encouraged to submit
nominations, including self-nominations. A nomination
statement of approximately 400 words should include
details of the nominees experience within the Internet,
commitment to promoting the noncommercial use of
the Internet, understanding of the technical or policy
issues facing the .ORG registry and perspectives
regarding the needs of the .ORG community. A current
biography and digital photograph are also requested.

The Council consists of twenty-one members selected
by the PIR Board of Directors in accordance with the
