Dear QGIS Community,

With the addition of the Tanzania User Group in 2025, we now have 34 
country-level user groups. The QGIS Charter 
<https://qgis.org/community/foundation/charter>calls for an equal number 
of “Community Voting Members” (we have 33), so we’re kicking off an 
election for one new voting member.

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

  *

    14 Jan - 27 Jan: Call for Nominations

  *

    28 Jan - 10 Feb: Voting

  *

    11 -13 Feb: Tally votes & verification of results

  *

    14 Feb: Announce results

**Call for Nominations**

We invite nominations for one Community Voting Member. 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 27 January 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 
<https://qgis.org/community/organisation>. If you have any questions 
about the process, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your continued engagement!

Cheers

John Bryant

QGIS Voting Officer
