>>>>>>>>> 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
