[NCUC-DISCUSS] Welcome to our new NCUC members

[William Drake]

Hello

Since most everyone subscribed to this list is also subscribed to NCSG-discuss, you probably will have seen Rafik’s welcome message to new NCSG members last week.   The NCUC EC has now done the second step in the process and we can welcome them to NCUC and this mail list as well:

*Organisations:

Fundación Vía Libre, Enrique A. Chaparro, Argentina

*Individuals:

Becky Lentz, Canada
Mamadou LO, Sénégal
Hanen Idoudi, Tunisia
Mohamed Mehdi AIDOUDI, France
Ganeswar Sahoo, Italy
Lillian Nalwoga, Uganda
Mishi Choudhary, India
Melaku Girma, Ethiopia
Fabro Steibel, Brazil
Ephraim Percy Kenyanito, Kenya

Greetings to all, great to have you on board.  Please feel free to introduce yourself to colleagues here and share any particular interests and activities related to NCUC, ICANN, etc. 

Just a reminder, the ncsg-discuss list is for stakeholder group-wide discussions on GNSO policy and processes, while this ncuc-discuss list is for the constituency only and focuses on our internal views and positions on these and other ICANN/Internet governance, as well as our intra-organizational development.  

You’re joining at a particularly apt time as we scale up for the ICANN meeting in London.  NCUC together with staff are organizing an outreach event geared toward civil society groups involved in Internet issues but not yet in ICANN on Friday 20 June 16:30-18:15 London time, and we will have our Constituency Day meeting Tuesday 24 June 9-12:30pm London time.  There will be remote participation in both events, details to come. We will also participate in various NCSG and GNSO and ICANN-wide activities—there’s a lot of important events going on in the meeting week, all with remote participation possibilities.  So we look forward to connecting F2F or remotely…

Best

Bill
