As noted on that page:

The Internet Society is now accepting nominations for the Board of Directors of the Public Interest Registry (PIR). PIR’s business is to manage the international registry of .org, .ngo, .ong, .charity, .foundation, .gives, and .giving domain names, as well as three .org associated Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs).

In 2025 there are three positions opening on the PIR Board. The appointed directors will serve three-year terms, beginning mid-year in 2025.

Prior board or senior executive experience is preferred. All directors must have an appreciation for PIR’s mission and the potential impact of PIR decisions on the customers of PIR and the global community served by .ORG and the other TLDs PIR operates. Directors must have a foundational understanding of financial statements and the ability to communicate effectively in English (all meetings and associated materials are presented in English).
