Thanks a million Rafik for all the efforts you have provided to NCUC as a Chair. You have left us a great team spirit and positive vibes that we will do our best to keep.

I will always keep in mind how I joined NCUC after ICANN55 in Morocco and that was because you were very convincing and inspiring.

Thanks a lot again for everything :)

Rafik,

We all owe you a huge thank you for your excellent stewardship of the NCUC during your term as chair. You fought hard for the resources that we have needed to grow our membership and to further integrate within the broader ICANN community. And on a personal note, thank you for pestering me in Dublin to join the NCUC ;-)

Best wishes to you on the GNSO Council,

Ayden Férdeline

Dear NCUC members,

With the announcement the election results, we are transitioning to a new elected Executive Committee for NCUC so it can start working in due time and there are already several tasks waiting for them. 

With that, my term as NCUC chair should end. Farzaneh is the new NCUC chair. I wish her good luck in her new role and I am happy to support her for the coming months. I had the pleasure to have her as member in the EC and I am confident that she will do a good job. I trust Farzaneh will do more and being successful to serve NCUC. The EC and herself will need all the support we provide.

I wanted to thank all NCUC members who trusted me for the last year, also the members of the 2015-2016 Executive committee. Serving the non-commercial was a pleasure, while not always easy due to the growing expectations and challenges. 

When I was elected last year, I was hoping to do many things and  thought about running in that office in the next years to achieve that. However, 2016 was not easy at a personal level and I reached conclusion that would be better to move to another position. There are always some regrets regarding what I could more or better, however I can ensure you that I did them with good faith and tried to do my best. I am also evaluating my actions and shortcomings.

We tried to improve many things the last months with regard to administrative tasks, planning for meetings, outreach efforts, appointments to different positions and amending the NCUC bylaws. This lay groundwork for  next steps such as working on procedures etc. The work of chair and EC is always a continuous improvement of what was done before and preparing for what will be done next.

I will be glad to continue my support for NCUC and helping the members by mentorship or respond to questions and inquiries.

Thanks again.

Best Regards,

Rafik Dammak
