[APAC-Discuss] NOW OPEN: 2023 Call for At-Large Leadership Positions

Tue Apr 18 16:40:03 UTC 2023

Dear Gunela
Thank you for nominating me for the position of NomCom delegate for
APRALO.  Here is my statement of interest.

In light of the fact that I am now in my 10th year on the ALAC, I think it
is appropriate that I step down and give others a chance to support the
voice of end-users from APRALO in our community's high level forum. At the
same time, I wish to continue to work in the interests of our region in
some way. Of the options that are available, this position is one area at
ground level, where I believe I can contribute my knowledge and experience
of the work of At-Large and our region, to the wider scope of our work
within ICANN. Thank you to the  APRALO community for your continued support
during my term on the ALAC and for enabling me to serve as the ALAC Chair
from our region. It is significant that the two women Chairs of the ALAC
have come from different backgrounds and cultures within the AP region. I
believe that this is because as a RALO, we all continually embrace and
celebrate the diversity of our community which also bonds us. On the
NomCom, we have the potential to infiltrate this strength into the ICANN
community. 😊

Regards
Maureen
