Final Voters Register

Published on 05/09/2025

 

 

This final register is published in line with AFRINIC’s election guidelines to ensure transparency in the conduct of the Board election.

As of today, AFRINIC has not received any reports of discrepancies regarding the provisional voter register published since 29 August 2025. Accordingly, the final register will be used for the AFRINIC Board election scheduled from 10 to 12 September 2025.

In the interest of transparency, the voter register has been updated to include four additional designated voters. These entries reflect late confirmations received from the nominating executives of the respective eligible resource members. We wish to emphasise that no new applications for voter registration have been accepted beyond the official deadline of 26 August 2025.

In compliance with data protection requirements and GDPR principles, only information strictly necessary for electoral purposes is displayed.

As a reminder, a designated voter will be eligible to cast a vote only after successfully completing biometric registration on the Voatz platform.
