[NCUC-EC] Implementation of new bylaws - Vice-chair election and Policy Committee NCUC

Tue Jun 19 13:51:33 CEST 2018

Happy to also support Bruna for this position as she has shown true
leadership on our journey as colleagues in this EC. I believe she’d be an
excellent vice chair.

Congrats!

Best,

Elsa

>>>>>>> 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

>>>>>>> recent actions and also strengthening NCUC's relations not only with the

>>>>>>> around the world and I still believe in those as very important

>>>>>>> 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
