Hi all,

It is also not within my intentions to run for Vice Chair. My best wishes
to Bruna, I'm confident that she'll excel in this position.

All the best,

>>>>> 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 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.In terms of
>>>>> Constituency goals, I believe they remain the same presented above but now
>>>>> applicable to the constituency level. At the time I have highlighted the
>>>>> importance of fostering communications with members and of the Constituency
>>>>> recent actions and also strengthening NCUC's relations not only with the
>>>>> region I am located at but also with the plethora of members we have spread
>>>>> around the world and I still believe in those as very important
>>>>> values/steps to take.Apart from that, improving NCUC participation in
>>>>> policy work is something I value and have been committed to at the EC
>>>>> level, therefore, I strongly believe in our members working closely with
>>>>> the NCSG PC representatives in order to build capacity within the
>>>>> constituency and become even more participative in echoing the CS voices in
>>>>> policy related discussions. In that point, I think that as a Constituency
>>>>> we could reach higher levels of participation once the right bridging
>>>>> between incoming members and PDP active members is done - and I plan to be
>>>>> available to help Renata with whatever else she needs.  About me My name is
