Under World Sailing’s new governance structure approved by the November 2022 AGM, there are now constitutional requirements for gender parity on the Board. As all candidates for President are male, the composition of the Vice Presidents must be three (3) male Vice Presidents and four (4) female Vice Presidents. The next Chair of the Athletes’ Committee can be male or female, as the Athletes’ Committee decides.
Controlling and regulating the Election process is World Sailing’s Election Committee, Margot Foster (Chair), Niels Lindholm, Jon Napier and Phil Cotton.
