 Greetings from Santiago de Chile to all ICAN 68 virtual policy forum participants. My name is Margarita Valdez and I'm representing the ICAN Community Excellence Award 2020 selection panel. It is a special honor to be the panelist who will formally announced and recognize the recipient of the award for this year. The Community Excellence Award recognized those ICAN participants who have deeply invested in consensus-based solutions and the importance of the ICAN's multistakeholder mother of the Internet Governance. The first award was given in 2014, so today is our seventh year of this important recognition. As a reminder of the process, all candidates are evaluated by a panel of community members appointed by the chairs of each supporting organization and advisory committee using the award criteria. Let me take the opportunity to thank my co-panelists for their work in this 2020 selection panel. Jorge Villa, appointed by ASO, Javier Ruayoved, Antigiane Benjamin, appointed by ELAC, Stephen Derhake, and me, appointed by the CCNSO, Kavu Saraste, appointed by the GAC, Pam Lidl and Rafik Demak, appointed by GNSO, Abdul Karim Oloye, appointed by ERSAC, Benedict Addis, and Lyman Chippen, appointed by ASAC. From late to March until early June, the panel met six times and conducted a review of all candidates and nomination statements. On behalf of the Community Selection Panel, I am pleased to announce that on the conclusion of our deliberations, we selected a long time-serving community member as the recipient of this year's award. The panel realized that this year's recipient demonstrates a strong collaboration with other community members and dedications to ICANN through active participation over many years. The recipients has undoubtedly made a significant impact in supporting and encouraging ICANN's multi-stakeholder model. I am honored to announce that we have selected Olivier Crepan-Leblond as the recipient of the 2020 Community Excellence Award. Over the course of six calls and email exchanges, the panel reached the conclusion that while other extraordinary candidates also met the criteria, Olivier's contributions were distinct, and his special dedication to ICANN's multi-stakeholder model made the difference. One unique point that stood out from the beginning of our review was Olivier's consensus-building skills and efforts, a point that is fundamental to the multi-stakeholder model. As repeatedly underlined by many nominators, Olivier has a special talent and empathy for needs of others. In the leadership roles he served for cross-community work and his own community at large, Olivier demonstrated that he could easily work with other community members of different backgrounds and views. Another significant point was the extraordinary amount of time and intellect Olivier devoted to ICANN, particularly helping and mentoring newcomers. Personally, my first encounter with Olivier was when we both served on the ICANN Domination Committee, while we were working, after the ICANN meeting in Brussels and at the time he was losing his father. That was June 2010. Despite this being a challenging time for him, he was still committed to ICANN and served diligently on the noncom. Over the years, he has demonstrated his enthusiasm, grit and commitment in all the roles and tasks that he has been involved in. He is a fantastic network builder and always available to connect people for new challenges. In terms of our model, the multi-stakeholderism special project has been jam-spent. Best demonstration of gathering, will and contribution of all a group of international participants from different constituencies and countries, and Olivier is our manager in this gathering. He is a great friend. I would like to take a moment to review some highlights of Olivier's contributions to ICANN. Olivier shared the Ad-Large Advisory Committee ALAC from 2010 to 2014. He shared the European Regional Ad-Large Organization Uralo from 2015 to 2019. Olivier serves as the ALAC liaison to the GNSO from 2015 to 2016. Olivier has been a co-chair of Cross-Community Working Group on Internet Governance since 2014. Olivier actively contributed to the work of following cross-community working groups and instructors. CCWG to develop an AYANA Stewardship Transition Proposal on Naming Related Functions, Accountability and Transparency Review Team 2, Special Trademark Issues Review Team and 2010 ICANN Nominating Committee. Olivier is a well-respected member of Ad-Large and the broader ICANN community. He is admired for his dedication, his helpfulness and ability to build consensus. All the four GOING supports Olivier as ICANN's 2020 Community Excellence Award recipient. Congratulations, Olivier. Felicidades, Olivier.
