In Solidarity with the Women's March on Washington, NAMEN has joined the 10 actions in 100 days initiative.  Members of NAMEN will be encouraged to a new action every 10 days during the next 100, coinciding with the new US presidential administration's first 100 days in office.

Dear Members and Prospective Members of NAMEN,

The North America MenEngage Network (NAMEN) is seeking nominations for new Steering Committee members. This year’s election will focus specifically on increasing gender diversity on the NAMEN Steering Committee. To this end, we are restricting nominations to women and female identified people.

Steering Committee members are elected by the general membership of NAMEN and serve for a three-year term.

If you are not currently a member of NAMEN, we encourage you to learn more about us and fill out a membership form here. Once you are a member you are eligible to nominate, vote for and serve on the Steering Committee.

Please review the Steering Committee Roles and Responsibilities here, and the NAMEN Core Principles here. If you would like to nominate someone, including yourself,  fill out the nomination form here

All nominations must be received by September 15, 2016. Nominees will be vetted and a proposed slate of candidates selected by the Steering Committee by October 15, 2016. General membership will then vote to approve new Steering Committee members.  

Every effort will be made to ensure that the membership of the Steering Committee represents diversity of race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, age, geographical location and fields of engaging men and boys.

Thank you for being a member of NAMEN!

Sincerely,

The NAMEN Election Committee:
Steven Botkin
Shane Joseph
