[bestbits] Civil Society Coordination Group - chair and BB representative positions open

[Renata Aquino Ribeiro]

Hello

Since there's still time to send suggestions for BestBits representative,
I'd like to nominate Nadira Alaraj from ISOC Palestine.
Nadira is ICANN fellow 53 and 55 and in IGF2015 helped many newcomers in IG
follow the debates.

Thank you

Renata Aquino Ribeiro
