Parallel RexCom elections are rolled out in all nine ICLEI regions. Candidates apply in their region by submitting the application within the deadline to the respective ICLEI Regional Office.

Eligible ICLEI Members vote online to elect three or five RexCom members, depending on the region. Every full ICLEI Member has the right to vote once on candidates in their respective regions.

Once elected, each RexCom nominates one representative for the GexCom regional seat. Additional GexCom thematic portfolio candidacies are open for a vote that follows.  

All ICLEI Regional Executive Committees will be elected by November 2017. Specific dates and deadlines for the candidates and voting will vary depending on the region - see calendar above.

The nine ICLEI Regional Executive Committees represent ICLEI Members throughout the nine ICLEI regions. The single ICLEI Global Executive Committee represents ICLEI Members on the global level to define ICLEI strategy and policy.

These governance bodies have a three-year term, and elections take place on this cycle, involving all ICLEI Members.

All eligible candidates from ICLEI Members are invited to apply and all ICLEI full Members are encouraged to vote.
