<div dir="ltr"><div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Hi everyone,</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">I wanted to share my vision for the Policy Committee so you can make an informed decision about my candidacy.</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">As you know, my approach centers on consulting with all members on key issues, with the NCSG mailing list serving as our primary communication channel.</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">My commitments and expectations:</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Collaboration and transparency:
Rafik chairs NCSG, and the PC and NCSG chairs must work together to ensure strong policy contributions. Rafik and I will facilitate open decision-making through our mailing lists, where your input is essential. Active participation builds trust and keeps our membership informed about our work and decision-making process.</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Accountability and engagement:
I expect all PC members to weigh in on different questions and decisions. If you need background on an issue, please reach out—I'm happy to explain. If you're unable to participate in key votes, I ask that you let us know why. PC members should also actively respond to general NCSG programming discussions—when Rafik requests proposals for sessions or other initiatives, your input is valuable and needed. In short, if you are a council member or a PC member you need to pay a lot of attention to this mailing list and weigh in. We make decisions through the mailing list. </p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Shared leadership:
Every PC member should lead or co-lead at least one public comment during the next six months. This distributes the workload and showcases our collective expertise.</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Support for members:
If I notice reduced activity from any PC or council member, I'll reach out privately first to see if you need support. Only after three attempts without response will I involve the relevant constituency or stakeholder group chair.</p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Regular reporting
I plan to reinstate periodic reporting to members after ICANN and council meetings—a practice we had years ago. Each PC member should volunteer to report back at least once annually. If we have enough volunteers, we could cover different ICANN meetings as well.</p><p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">Monitoring council meeting: All PC members need to know what is going on on the council. as much as possible observe those meetings or watch the recording. </p>
<p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">The work ahead requires active participation and leadership from all of us. I wanted to outline these expectations now so there are no surprises later.</p><p class="gmail-font-claude-response-body gmail-break-words gmail-whitespace-normal gmail-leading-[1.7]">We can also do an onboarding beginning of the year so that we are all on the same page. </p></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">Thank you for considering voting for me. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif">Best regards, </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif"><br></div><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">Farzaneh </font></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Dec 23, 2025 at 1:44 PM Daniel Gluck via NCSG-PC <<a href="mailto:ncsg-pc@lists.ncsg.is">ncsg-pc@lists.ncsg.is</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg-5271683419314160288">
