Volunteer to be on the 2026 ARIN Fellowship Selection Committee

ARIN volunteers help to drive the future of ARIN, our community, and the Internet.

Thank you for your interest in serving on the 2026 ARIN Fellowship Selection Committee!

This is an opportunity for volunteers to serve on a key committee that is responsible for selecting qualified individuals within the ARIN region to participate in a structured educational program. Committee members will read and evaluate each eligible application assigned to them, and as a committee, discuss and select Fellows for the next program cycle. During the program, Fellows will learn about the Policy Development Process (PDP) and ARIN’s work and services before each ARIN Public Policy and Members Meeting takes place (for 2026 that is ARIN 57 and ARIN 58). Fellows will also be mentored by a member of the ARIN community.

To be considered as a volunteer you must be a representative from an ARIN General Member Organization or an ARIN Fellow alum, and have attended or participated in at least one ARIN Public Policy and Members Meeting within the past three years, be willing to contribute approximately 10 hours of time during 2026 (January/February OR July/August, specifically), and complete the following questionnaire.

Past or present members from ARIN's Board of Trustees and Advisory Council are eligible to serve.
