Dear all,

I would also like to support Benjamin's nomination as I think he would be a
great asset to NCUC EC. Ben is very collaborative and willing to work extra
to help us achieve our community goals and I guess that is a good thing.
Additionally, his contributions to policy comments in the recent times are
also very valuable and a proof of Ben's commitment to the community. So I
do hope you accept this nomination, Benjamin!

Last but not least, I would also like to thank @hfaiedh ines
<hfaiedh.ines2 at gmail.com> for her contributions to the NCUC EC in the past
years. Ines has always been a great leader in the region and helped us get
the NCUC word to newer places, so id like to state that NCUC is very
thankful for that.

best,
Bruna Santos
NCUC Chair
