I would like to strongly support Paulina. She is a very kind,
knowledgeable and empathetic speaker whose work is strongly rooted in
grass roots activism which had it's impact in policy circles.

She seems the perfect candidate to represent civil society because she
is representing the host country, knows the international discussions
and is very capable t0 voice the concerns and opinions of a wide array
of actors.

Cheers,

Niels
