Hi everyone,

As current Leader of the Commission of Cities and Volcanoes (CaV), it is my
pleasure to open the Call for Nominations for four Commissioners, to serve
from 2023-2026. Nominations are open through 17 January (New Zealand
Standard Time) 2023, and voting will occur online from 18-23 January 2023.

Please refer to information below and to the commission webpage,
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://citiesonvolcanoes.wordpress.com/about-us/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aoIqH4E4BYttHniAlCRCMwvmdyaVkFvNfZxjqz20vSM0qtANiOAd0mVFdI52ZF1AAx16kg6PSq_QKZ2kkqr0Iw$>
which
outlines the role and responsibilities of the CaV Commission and its
Executive Committee. You may nominate yourself as a CaV Commissioner and/or
another individual.

Other Key information:

   - The CaV Commission Executive group consists of five commissioners
   (one is a past leader), who are supported by a Secretary, and Special
   Projects Coordinator. The current list of members can be found online.
   <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://citiesonvolcanoes.wordpress.com/about-us/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!aoIqH4E4BYttHniAlCRCMwvmdyaVkFvNfZxjqz20vSM0qtANiOAd0mVFdI52ZF1AAx16kg6PSq_QKZ2kkqr0Iw$>
   - Four Commissioners will be elected to serve from 2023 to the next
   stand-alone IAVCEI General Assembly (likely 2026).
   - Of the open contested seats, one will be filled by an Early Career
   Representative (ECR), although there can be more than one ECR on the
   Executive Committee. An ECR received their terminal degree on or after
   January 1 2016, or with the 7 years, excluding parental or other relevant
   leave.

What does being a commissioner involve?

   - Voting on selection of the host Cities on Volcanoes (COV) Conference
   location every 2 years.
   - Providing advocacy and advice to the COV conference local organising
   committees.
   - Supporting the ongoing mission of COV conferences through regular
   communication with its membership and IAVCEI.
   - Managing and maintaining a membership database.
   - Contributing to the promotion of safe, supportive, diverse and
   inclusive participation at the COV conferences.
   - These roles are voluntary.

In addition, this commission is strongest when there is geographic and
professional diversity in its leadership. In the past, the commission
leadership has been dominated by Aotearoa New Zealand and the United States
and the academic (including government scientist) sector. We encourage
nominations that promote geographic and professional diversity, with
nominees from Latin America, Africa, South East Asia or the Pacific
(excluding Aotearoa New Zealand and Australia), and at least one
Commissioner from outside the physical sciences (e.g. emergency management,
civil defence and the social sciences).

Of the five current commissioners, one is staying on in the past leader
role (Graham Leonard), one is retiring (Carolyn Driedger), two are stepping
down (Gustavo Villarosa, Tom Wilson), and one is seeking re-election
(Natalia Deligne).
