Dear Everyone -
I am reaching out to announce the results of the recent Affiliations
Committee appointments. On behalf of the Committee, thank you to all who
applied to join and to those who supported this process. The Affiliations
Committee is also grateful to HakanIST and Aaryaa Joshi who recently
completed their terms as Advisory Members to the Affiliations Committee.
The Affiliations Committee is happy to share that Aleksey Chalabyan and
Lucas Teles have been appointed to the Affiliations Committee as Voting

previous term as a Voting Member and Lucas transitioned from a one-year

Following their previous terms as Advisory Members, Delphine Ménard, Juan
Bautista Alegre, and Nyinawumuntu Jeannette Rebecca have agreed to extend
their terms as Advisory Members ending 28 February 2026. Following his term
as a Voting Member, Maor Malul requested to transition to an advisory role
with a term ending 28 February 2026.
I am also excited to share that Bobby Shabangu, Robert Jamal, and Tochi
Precious have also accepted to join the committee as Advisory Members with

insights and perspectives as they join the Committee.
The Affiliations Committee appreciates all candidates for putting their

participated in the process.
Please join me in welcoming the returning and newly-appointed members of
AffCom.
