<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">Of course there is no requirement about filing an SoI. However, reading from the “Selection and performance criteria for EURALO Board members 2015”,
 that you contributed in drafting, I see “Participation at ALAC or EURALO regular Working groups”, which requires filing an RoI.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">If I remember correctly, you were one of the most vocal members last year, before the new Board elections, about the lack of involvement of the
 past Board.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">I am, therefore, pretty surprised that now you do not consider active involvement an important factor.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">But this is beside the point.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">Right now, the voting members of EURALO have to choose between one candidate that is active in outreach, participating in ALAC activities (including
 the AGM), member of working groups, author of papers on the legal issues involving ICANN (in particular, but not limited to, the UDRP), and much more.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">On the other hand we have one other candidate that might well potentially be a top contributor, but that up to now has not done any activity that
 was requiring an SoI, which is just about everything except attendance to meetings and teleconferences, and reading the mailing list. Incidentally, unless I have missed some emails, her acceptance email was the first one written on the EURALO list.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">You notice that some people are selected to the ICANN Board without prior involvement. True. But the ICANN Board has a different role. It must
 govern the organization, and to do that, to have the fiduciary responsibility of the management of the organization requires a different set of skills, that are not necessarily limited to prior knowledge of the policy development process. In EURALO, the decision-making
 body is the General Assembly, not the Board. According to our Articles of Association, Article 9.3.2, the Board has the role of implementing the decisions of the GA. And I would argue that familiarity with the EURALO activities is at least a very important
 requirement for who must implement the GA decisions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">What I would suggest is, since next year we have a complete renewal of the Board, that Julia files an RoI, participates in one or two working groups,
 gets actively involved in the policy development process for a year, and be a top level candidate for the 2017 Board elections.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:&quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;color:#1F497D">I am not a voting member of EURALO, but this is what I would consider to be the best option if I were one.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Prior to that I have worked as a programmer and technical consultant at the Bulgarian Council of Ministers on issues related to e-governance, as well as part of the free software community in Bulgaria.<br>
I have led and brought to successful completion projects ranging from e-governance on the Balkans; free software in public administrations in South-Eastern Europe; to creating knowledge infrastructures for open culture in Scandinavia.&nbsp;<br>
Since 2008 I live in Sweden from where I have co-consulted the Republic of Kosovo on the TLD process; participated in WCIT in Dubai in 2012 as part of the Swedish delegation; and lectured on the internet governance process and multi-stakeholderism at Swedish
 universities. I am also a member of the Swedish Reference group on Internet Governance formed by the Swedish Post and Telecom Authority.&nbsp;<br>
<br>
I am currently in the process of finishing a PhD in Media Studies at Södertörn University in Stockholm on the topic of creating public digital infrastructures for cultural production.&nbsp;<br>
<br>
One of the topics that interests me most at the moment concerns the ways in which fiber optic connectivity and online platforms reconfigure the role of data centre infrastructure providers to become energy suppliers in different locations across Europe.<br>
If I am elected as a board member of EURALO, I will be interested in discussing more this ongoing change, and try to assess its implications on the power of ISPs and data centre operators in relation to internet governance, as well as their implications on
 consumers. Other issues that interest me are cyberwarfare and cybersecurity across Europe, as well as their regulation.<br>
<br>
I am fluent in English, Swedish, Bulgarian and Russian.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>
