Based on some questions: By “region” or “regional” we mean a group of countries in the same area/region.

This is super long time commitment, and I’m worried it may cost the one’s all voluntary time.
This is a super important task and definitely will involve a lot of time.
It’s up to you to balance your volunteer time, but I guess some people will be happy devoting most of their mozilla time to this, which is also supporting the organization (even if it’s not doing something functional) 
This is not a decision making position, it’s a role to help, support
and empower local communities from the Reps program. This is a
rotational role that will be renewed each 6 months. This call is open
for any Rep or Participation Leader.
is will there be enough people to renew every 6 months because the time is short ?
That’s a good question, I’m confident we have enough skilled mozillians willing to support the countries in their region. We are thinking on 10 regions world wide.
What are the names of regions / countries that you think of first ?
- Region 1: USA, Canada
- Region 2: Mexico, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Chile, Argentina, Cuba, Uruguay
- Region 3: Ireland, UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Lithuania, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia, Czech Republic.
- Region 4: Hungary, Albania, Kosovo, Serbia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, Romania, Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Ukraine, Russia, Israel
- Region 5: Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Palestine, Azerbaijan, Armenia, Iran
- Region 6: Cameroon, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana
- Region 7: Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Madagascar, Mauritius, Zimbabwe, Botswana
- Region 8: China, Taiwan, Bangladesh, Japan
- Region 9: India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar
- Region 10: Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand

You are right, added. The initial list was created based on the countries where we had Reps instead of where we have active communities. Please, flag any other missing country 
Yep because initially was only for Reps but now is opened also for Participation Leaders and at the same time we are working with the firsts coaches as experiment so add all the country will be difficult to see what’s going on.

Cuba is not in the list. We have REPS and a active community.

Hey guys,
we are missing people from the region, there are few now but we need more to evaluate the right person so apply!
It will be an awesome experience and will improve the relationship with near communities.
yes the point is good
but for my part, I am complete in 2016
I would see it in 2017
best regard
Final push before we close the form today. We really need people from Region 3 and 4
Also just realizing that it would be great to have more applicant from Region 6 too 
So finally the application is closed guys!
Actually we received an huge number of applications from around the world!
The numbers? 54 applications!
Now it’s time to evaluate all the candidates with the Reps Council with all the regions, countries, languages, culture differences etc that power our amazing community.
We keep you updated guys!

We have done an adjustment to Regions 8, 9, 10 to make sure we have the bandwidth to support all the countries and most of them are with culturally similar ones (there is no perfect solution :-P)
