    Dear Fouad,<br>
    <br>
    thanks for your kind reply. I think there may be a confusion
    somehow. The ALAC Leadership Team (ALT) can by definition only be
    composed of people who are serving on the ALAC during the year of
    appointment.<br>

              Leadership Team<br>
              <br>
              Hello all,<br>
              <br>
              I hereby nominate the following ALAC members for the 2016
              ALAC Leadership Team:<br>
              <br>
              Africa (AFRALO): Tijani Ben Jemaa (Vice Chair)<br>
              Asia, Australasia and Pacific Islands (APRALO): Holly
              Raiche<br>
              Europe (EURALO): Sandra Hoferichter<br>
              Latin American and Caribbean Islands (LACRALO): Leon
              Sanchez (Vice Chair)<br>
              <br>
              Tijani's been an excellent Vice Chair in recent years and
              is a real power-drive in Africa both for ICANN but also in
              Internet Governance.<br>
              Holly has been an excellent ALT member in recent years, as
              well as a driver of WHOIS related work.<br>
              Sandra has been at the root of ICANN's learning programs,
              like the Leadership Training Program and this needs to be
              at the heart of the ALT when discussing expansion of the
              programs.<br>
              Leon has shown his excellence in being a co-chair of the
              CCWG Accountability and would make an excellent Vice Chair
              of the ALAC.<br>
              <br>
              Warmest regards,<br>
