<div dir="ltr">Thank you so much for this nomination, Ayden!
<div><br>
<div>I would love to second it wholeheartedly and say that nomination of Rafik is the case where just the name speaks for itself.</div>
<div>Any of our members who ever attended NCSG policy call, GNSO meeting or at least are reading the mailing list know how much work Rafik is tirelessly doing for NCSG - as a vice-chair of GNSO, as a chair of NCSG policy committee, as NCSG member. </div>
<div>If I list all the work he has done for us, it will take me days to write this email! </div>
<div>So I would just say that I am happy he is with us -- and thank him for all support and advice and coordination I got being on the Council. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>

<div>I would like to nominate Rafik Dammak to serve a second term on the GNSO Council. Over the past two years Rafik has represented us professionally and intelligently on the Council, taking principled and consistent stances in support of Internet freedoms
and human rights that have allowed the NCSG to raise its profile and to successfully take a noncommercial outlook on important policy matters within the GNSO. He is currently the Vice-Chair of the Council; in serving in this leadership position he has been
able to amplify our voice throughout the community, and should he serve a second term, it is my hope that he will be able to continue representing us in such a capacity.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Rafik, I hope very much that you will accept this nomination.<br>
