<P class=MsoNormal>Dear IGC members,</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I would like to use this opportunity to bring to your
attention this wonderful news that we have a new Co-coordinator, joining me in
this role to support this group. Her name is <B>Bruna Martins dos Santos (Bruna
Santos), from Brazil</B>. She was chosen based on the following process:</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>A call for nominations for a new co-co was sent to the list
on April 27, 2017 and was supposed to close on May 10<SUP>th</SUP>, giving ample
time for us to carry the nomination process. Several reminders, as promised,
were sent by Arsene Tungali, the last one being a day prior to the expiration of
the nomination process.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Please see pasted bellow the call sent, just for record:</P>

<P class=MsoNormal>---Message ends---</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>We received the nomination from Ms. Bruna Martins sent to the
list on May 9<SUP>th</SUP> expressing her interest to join this voluntary
leadership position. Her statement of interest as well as her vision for this
group are pasted bellow for your record (at the end of this email). She received
public expression of support from Michael Oghia, Evelynn Namara and Renata
Aquino and no one had a negative view on her candidacy.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Given the fact that she was the only one, we will not proceed
to the next phase which was to organize a poll but I suggest we immediately
consider her into the role, as our new second Co-coordinator, serving from May
2017 to May 2019. As a reminder, my term will expire on or around February 2018
and she will be responsible to carry the election for the new
Co-coordinator.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I will leave this open for the next few days should anyone
<B>has any comment on the process or anyone has a strong feeling about why Bruna
Santos should not be considered for this role in line of the above explained
process.</B> Please, do state why you think she will do great or not in your
comment (that can be sent to me privately or directly to the list). On Monday,
May 15<SUP>th</SUP>, I will send a final email based on the feedback that I will
have received.</P>

NETMundial, a side event for the NetMundial directed at the Civil Society
representatives that were in brazil during the meeting and that aimed to hold
the same discussions regarding the future of the Internet with the local
community . Therefore I believe that despite the fact that I am quite young, I
believe I would be a good co-Coordinator due to that fact that Im willing to
advocate for a more inclusive and equal Internet, and am also continuing my
engagement activities with the IG community.</SPAN><SPAN
