Farzaneh has a wealth of experience within NCUC and across a number of ICANN working groups, including among others, serving as penholder in the current revision of NCUC's bylaws and as co-rapporteur of the SO/AC accountability subgroup in CCWG-ACCT WS2. She
has in-depth knowledge of both policy development processes and administrative procedures at ICANN, which she frequently shares to help newer members. Moreover, Farzaneh has been an outstanding European representative on the NCUC Executive Committee, demonstrating
dedication and a commitment to transparency by sending regular updates to members and by effectively engaging in outreach. </p>
