warm, compassionate, sharp, wise are just a few of the words used to describe
the person Ian Peter was. He played a pioneering role in internet development and governance,
including as a dedicated member of the IGC, and was always incredibly helpful
to us as co-coordinators. As has been mentioned by many, his unwavering commitment
to the cause and to social justice more generally was evident through his impressive
record of work. His legacy to the field is clear and will live on, but just as
important, are the lives he touched because of the person he was. As co-cos,
Bruna and I benefited from Ian’s experience, knowledge and his open character
enormously. <span></span></i></p>

he generously provided. It was suggested that we organise a call to share
tributes and to send a letter to Ian’s family. If this is of interest, we can
organise a call at 1 PM UTC in early February and we can share a doodle. For
those who can’t attend, we can share a doc to collaborate around to write the
suggested letter. <br></i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><i>Wishing you all a good start to 2022,</i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><i>Best wishes</i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><i>Sheetal & Bruna.<br></i></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><i><span></span></i></p>

<p>It is very sad to hear Ian leave us....</p>
<p>As others have said, he was a good person. A very good person -
pure and simple at heart. Cared greatly for the 'Internet', had
strong and clear views and ideas, but always listened. It was so
easy to talk with him, even when disagreeing. However strongly he
was for something, he never turned away from reasoning for or
against it. <br>
</p>
<p>The world is a better place because of people like Ian. He will
be fondly remembered.</p>
<p>I had the good fortune of working with him as a co-coordinator of
IGC. He wholehearted, selfless dedication was pure inspiration. <br>
</p>
<p>On matters of trivia, to beat the condition imposed by the IGF
for some time for having a co- organizer from at least three
stakeholder groups, he gladly lent us Ian Peter and Associates
(<a href="https://www.ianpeter.com/bio.html" target="_blank">https://www.ianpeter.com/bio.html</a>) as our private sector partner
for many workshops :)</p>
<p>Always a man ready to help.</p>
<p>Be well wherever you are, Ian!</p>
<p>With fond love and memories, parminder <br>
