Dear CIG Community, We are soliciting nominations for candidates to fill positions on the CIG Executive Committee (EC, 2 positions) and Science Steering Committee (SSC, 4 positions, one of them partial term). Please send your nominations via email to [**nominations@geodynamics.org**](mailto:nominations@geodynamics.org) by COB Friday September 24th. Self nominations are encouraged! We also note that any candidate whose nomination is signed by three Electors will be placed on the slate. We are committed to developing diverse membership in the committees with representation from different research areas, geographic locations and underrepresented groups. Nominations for candidates with expertise in the areas of seismology, dynamo, and computer science are especially encouraged this year. Further information on the roles of these committees and current members can be found at [https://geodynamics.org/cig/about/governance/](https://geodynamics.org/cig/about/governance/), which now includes documents that detail the responsibilities of the [SSC](https://geodynamics.org/cig/files/1116/2991/4245/Responsibilities_of_the_SSC.pdf) and the [EC](https://geodynamics.org/cig/files/8616/2991/4166/Responsibilities_of_the_EC.pdf).
