Dear Affiliate Member,
There will be Board elections this April for the roles of:
Regional Directors for Asia, Australasia & North America, and one At-large Director (responsible for Operations).
Nominations
Paid-up Affiliate Members are entitled to nominate any number of candidates for the At-large positions and one candidate for a Regional position and that candidate must be for the Affiliate’s own region.
Please note, nominees for the AAI Board must satisfy the following criteria:
> Sufficient competence in reading and speaking English to be able to participate in Board discussions.

> Have access to reliable internet connectivity.
> Be available to attend monthly Board meetings and any committees to which they are appointed,
> Have a record as an activist or organizer on behalf of nonbelief for at least two years, or otherwise possess skills deemed valuable to the organization.
The Board will carry out authentication checks to ensure nominees meet these criteria before including them on the ballot paper. Authenticated nominees will be invited to submit campaign materials which will be displayed on the AAI website.
Nominations for Board positions must be received by the AAI Secretary (secretary@atheistalliance.org) by April 06, 2021.
