Dear Stephanie,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I wish you and the EC a happy new year.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">I welcome this e-mail as a great opportunity for an NCSG member to learn more and contribute to the GNSO council's mission.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Although I have recently applied, been endorsed by our NCSG PC Chair Rafik Dammak, and been selected to be an alternate GNSO councillor in Barcelona, I think it is a good idea for me to apply again even if one might think that a random new person
should be given priority. Actually, given that I had started warming up with GNSO Council face-to-face meetings, I believe that my participation in the KOBE meeting as a councillor would be a perfect chance to ensure continuity of my learning process and my
preparedness to either serve as a councillor or be knowledgeable enough to coach people and contribute efficiently. Therefore, I am confident that I represent a better candidate than any random member. However, I also do believe that giving chance to a different
member is good for diversity and awareness within our community.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Below is my statement. Please rest assured that both my commitment and willingness to serve remain.</div>

<span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Thanks to the diversity and the multi-stakeholder characteristic
that the Internet governance issue requires, attending an ICANN meeting is always a good opportunity to meet with great people, mentors, leaders and governments representatives and to discuss key topics relevant for the development of the Internet.</span></div>
<br class="">

<span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">ICANN 64 could be my first Community Meeting as an alternate
councillor. As an NCUC representative to the NCSG Policy Committee, it would be good to physically attend and monitor ongoing policy-related discussions within the GNSO and other stakeholders such as the ALAC. Within the NCSG, I usually participate in our
monthly policy calls and use to listen to the GNSO council audio streamings to keep posted about hot topics and new trends. Proofs of that can be found in the meetings’ attendance usually sent by our ICANN support Maryam Bakoshi.
</span></div>

<span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Recently in ICANN63, I represented the NCSG as a councillor
to my first ever AG meeting and took this opportunity to connect, learn, and contribute to various Working Groups and Workshops including serving at the ICANN fellowship booth to conduct Policy-related issues awareness for participants. In ICANN61, I participated
in the Policy Writing Course and even drafted a template for writing our public comments in the future. I have contributed to many Public Comments and will be glad to share views and experiences with participants during the event, especially regarding the
recently published EPDP report which I am particularly</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; white-space: pre-wrap;" class=""> interested in. I also have a good understanding of the GNSO Council and how it works, that is why I would like
to envision the possibility of replacing the councillor who cannot attend.</span></div>
<br class="">
<div class="" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt;

<span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">During my stay in KOBE, I will be available to attend
every NCSG meeting and any other activity that will have a positive impact on our community. I will help newcomers in understanding how policy issues work within the NCSG and the ICANN as a whole. No doubt that I will stay engaged before and after. I will
closely work with the onsite leadership team and provide them with any necessary support.</span></div>

<span class="" style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In general, I will stay engaged within our working groups,
as I always do within the Policy Committee, and as I did during the Buddy Programme where I translated all overviews in French to allow French speakers to have a better understanding.</span></div>

https://meetings.icann.org/en/kobe64</a>. One of our GNSO Council members, Martin Valent, is unable to attend the meeting because of other commitments and we need to replace him quickly, in order to make use of his travel funding allotment, which is allocated
by Council. This decision is done through the NCSG EC, and we need to make it very quickly. If you are interested in applying to replace Martin at the meeting, please do so in the next five (5) days, sending me and Maryam Bakoshi a brief statement of your
interest, your experience with the council, current working group membership etc. This is not for a novice, Council has a lot of important work on the agenda and if you have not been following the work of Council or the key working groups and policy development
processes at the moment, you will find it a struggle. For those not familiar with GNSO Council, it is pretty easy to get engaged...check out the website, follow the lists, attend the monthly Council calls as an observer, or listen to the recordings of any
of the working groups you are interested in. You will find the website (unlike many at ICANN) is actually well organized and helpful.
