Dear Olga, Ken, Ines, Lia,

Good day and I hope this email finds you well.

I just want to ask for your feedback on the first mail I would like to share with the members and also welcome you to the tenure of service.

Please, I would like to know your views and suggestions on the next steps. Especially the best way to get engagement active on our mailing list and our community.

Please look below at the draft of my supposed introduction email to the community and let me know your thoughts before the  end of today. I do appreciate your feedback.

Hi NCUC members,

My name is Benjamin Akinmoyeje  and I am the new NCUC chair. I am writing to formally introduce myself and share a bit of the aspirations for NCUC.

As the NCUC chair,  I will be responsible for increasing member engagement and participation of our constituency at the ICANN multistakeholder space.
I hope to be the interface between members and the other sections of the community.I will bring issues that need your contribution to your attention.
It is my expectation that we will participate more actively in the policy development processes to maintain the stability of DNS as we have always done.

I hope to amplify our participation in ICANN activities and discussion online more than before as virtual engagement has come to stay.
There is a dire demand for us to become more intentional about the use of the available online tools, such as  NCUC website, twitter, facebook and zoom platforms for our engagements.

I am eager to work directly with members with online influence to amplify discourse on the topics of interests to our community. I am looking forward to working with the NCUC-EC, Brenda and Andrea to serve the community.

I can see the NCUC EC and ICANN support team doing great work.

It is obvious that volunteer fatigue and burnout are real, and virtual ICANN has also dampened momentum, but we can not give up now, I call on all members to
endeavor to participate and contribute their little portion, especially veterans and newbies alike.

This is a learning opportunity for me and I hope to grow in this capacity.

I want to thank Maryam once more for all her support to our community and welcome Andrea. Also Thank Brenda for her continuous support.

I also like to thank everyone who voted in the last elections to select the new leadership. I look forward to working with everyone for the advancement of NCUC.

I’d like to share some details about myself.
I am currently conducting my PhD research studies in Informatics at the Namibia University of Science and Technology,I was the immediate NCUC-EC Africa representative.
My career experience has been in digital health in public health in Nigeria and some parts of Africa while my ICANN experience started as recently as 2014. NCUC has been my home since I stepped into ICANN

Finally, I like to thank the immediate Chair Raphael, for his selfless service to the community and his support as well.

Kind regards,

Benjamin Akinmoyeje
