[NCUC-DISCUSS] Candidate SOI - NCUC EC LAC - Bruna Martins dos Santos

Thu Oct 19 03:17:00 CEST 2017

@yolanda I also strongly believe on keeping all the good things the actual
EC is doing and only changing it if its for the better! Thank you for your
kind words, Yolanda! One interesting thing to note is that NCUC has a very
consistent group female leaders that are and will keep on working for its
improvement, and that includes you as well.

@Farrell, Renata's shoes are indeed big ones to fill, but I hope to count
with the support not only of the LAC Community but of NCUC as a whole. I
have to say that all the candidates for this elections are very admirable
to say the least - You, Renata, Ines, Yolanda, Michael, Elsa, David (and I
apologize If im forgetting anyone); I look forward to start collaborating
with the new EC and NCUC Chair! The best of luck to all of us!

Best,

Bruna

>> Dear all,
>>
>> Please find my SOI below (also available on google docs
>> <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_wJ7EXDd9KFYxYnE9mBVo5GYhpqsQeb8X1lfuh0ZIko/edit?usp=sharing>)
>> Apologies for the size of it and I'd also like to make myself available for
>> answering to any questions.

>> NCUC and goals
>>
>> I believe I'd be able to serve the NCUC Executive Committee as the LAC
>> Region representative due to the fact that for the past years I have been
>> an advocate for civil rights online and a democratic internet. Also, my
>> involvement with some brazilian initiatives for ensuring the rights of
>> citizens online such as the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the
>> Internet
>> <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_Civil_Rights_Framework_for_the_Internet>(Marco
>> Civil da Internet), the organization of Arena NETMundial, a side event for
>> the NetMundial directed at the Civil Society are good examples of my
>> engagement with Internet Governance subjects in my region. Broad
>> participation is one of my highest regards, groups can only profit from
>> voicing as many claims and realities as possible, therefore being able to
>> keep on ensuring that the LAC region voices continue to take part in NCUC
>> would be the first goal if I get elected.
>>
>> As for my visions regarding NCUC and how my participation would be
>> useful, given the fact that my affinity with the group and what it
>> advocates for, I believe in making it even more participative through a few
>> measures:
>>
>> 1. Communication: I think it would be important for the LAC members to
>> be aware of all the ways NCUC is acting in the region. Having said that,
>> I'd say that a good regional representative at the EC is the one who can
>> pass on information to his community on a monthly basis. By sharing
>> information on how to get involved, and where does the NCUC needs help, I
>> believe we can achieve even higher levels of engagement.
>>
>> 2. Outreach-inreach: given the fact that NCUC members are important
>> internet governance actors/researchers/activists in all of the different
>> regions of the globe, I think it is of utter importance for them to know
>> who else is alongside them and also who they could reach out to in any
>> subject they wish; I also admire a lot Renata's work during her term and
>> achieving her level of presence and participation is also a goal.
>> Therefore, if I were elected I'd also like to continue with her monthly
>> calls and activities regarding the mailing list in order to strengthen
>> NCUC's relation with the LAC community and for that I'd like to count with
>> my fellow LAC members !
>>
>> Having worked in the field in the local level since 2009, Civil Society's
>> claims and the obstacles that activism often encounters such as lack of
>> space from governments are of my understandment.  Despite the fact that my
>> active participation at ICANN and NCUC is quite recent, Internet Governance
>> is not a new subject to me. I believe that I would be a good LAC Region
>> Representative at the Executive Committee due to the fact that Im willing
>> to advocate for a more inclusive and equal Internet and will also have the
>> will of continuing to pursue NCUC's participation within the IG community.
>>
