Participate in elections

APNIC Members can play an active role in the regional and global Internet resource community by nominating candidates and voting in APNIC elections. Each year APNIC holds two main elections, one for Executive Council (EC) members, the other for Number Resource Organization Number Council (NRO NC) members.

Elected members of the APNIC Executive Council (EC) and the APNIC representatives on the NRO NC play an important role in the community.  Successful candidates serve a term of two years.

Each year, APNIC members have the opportunity to nominate representatives to both bodies and to vote for their preferred candidate(s). Elections take place at the APNIC Member Meetings during February and August (approximately) each year, but you can cast your vote even if you do not attend the Member Meeting.

APNIC-elected members of the NRO Number Council also participate on the ICANN Address Supporting Organisation Address Council (ASO AC).

Specific details regarding the election are published on the relevant APNIC meeting website. For information on the next APNIC election, check the current APNIC meeting website.
