Dear NCSG members,

If multi-stakeholder governance has any meaning at all, there should be an official explanation to the context that led to Farzaneh's resignation. I also express my regrets: her commitment, competence and efficiency will be greatly missed.

    Dear NCSG members,
    
    
    With regret, I resign from all the voluntary positions I hold as the
    Non-Commercial Stakeholders Group representative at ICANN. This includes my
    positions as the NCSG representative on EPDP and the NCSG representative on
    the Council. I did my best to remain in these roles especially to respect
    the outcome of a fairly held election. Unfortunately, it is not feasible
    for me to stay involved any further.
    
    
    I’d like to have a peace of mind without further conflicts and not be
    subject to attacks therefore unfortunately I do not feel safe to provide
    the reason.
    
    
    
    Best regards

    Dear Farzaneh,
    I am so sad reading your mail, what ever the case might be, i hope the able
    leadership of ICANN will help address your concerns.
    I feel very sad seeing you leave the very community you spent most of your
    time and efforts you contributed in developing NCSG.
    I pray that you find the peace in your heard to softly decline your
    decision some how. I think your experience is still needed some how.
    
    personally, i have learnt a lot from your style of leadership since the
    time of ICANN fellowship program (ICANN 49) in Singapore.
    
    Regards and God bless.

    Dear Farzi,
    Certainly we'll lack from your knowlegde and experience in that field of
    Internet Gouvernance and specially from Non-commercial aspect.
    Aniway, kudo to you in your New activities.
    IMHO, your decision is understandable to me in this confused ecosystem.
    Good Luck to you.
    Kind regards
    Olévié KOUAMI

    Farzaneh dear
    This is not good news for those of us who look up to you especially as it
    seems you are under threat and I hope requisite report has been sent to the
    relevant authorities along side this your letter.
    And if it had become a threat as it sounded. It then stand as a bad omen.
    
    Hopefully you are safe.
    May God continue to be with you.
