[Qgis-community-team] Community Voting Members Election Nov-Dec 2026: Schedule and Call for Nominations

[Voting Officer]

Dear QGIS Community,

With the addition of Algeria, Armenia, Cameroon, Canada, Croatia, Cyprus,
and India in 2026, we now have 38 country-level user groups. The QGIS
Charter <https://qgis.org/community/foundation/charter> calls for an equal
number of “Community Voting Members” (we have 32), so we’re kicking off an
election for six new voting members.

This year’s election will aim to follow this schedule:

   -

   12 - 26 Nov: Call for Nominations
   -

   27 Nov - 10 Dec: Voting
   -

   11 - 12 Dec: Tally votes & verification of results

**Call for Nominations**

We invite nominations for 6 Community Voting Members. Any active QGIS
community member is eligible to be nominated.

Only QGIS Committers (“any person who has been granted commit access in any
of the official QGIS repositories”) are eligible to make nominations. This
includes committers to any QGIS Git repository or Transifex project.

Before making a nomination, please confirm you’re eligible, and check with
the person you’re nominating to make sure they are willing.

You can submit your nominations until **23:59 UTC on 26 November 2026**
here:

If you play an organisational role (e.g. documentation lead, translation
lead), kindly forward this email to your committers to ensure broad
participation.

For further details, visit the QGIS community organisation page

the process, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your continued engagement!
