[bestbits] Steering committee election begins

[Antonella Perini]

Hi!

First of all, thanks, Jeremy, for organizing the SC election. As I am quite
new to the group, I wanted to give further details about my background and
activities.

I received a Bachelor's Degree in International Relations from University
of San Andrés (Argentina) and a Master's Degree in International Relations
Europe - Latin America from University of Bologna. I currently work at
Asuntos del Sur -a Latin American think tank- on projects on political
innovation, technopolitics, open government and internet governance. We
seek to boost political innovation through open debates, research,
documents and other capacity building resources, civic technologies and the
creation of an ecosystem of collaborative actors. I also work as a
freelancer managing digital communication projects for NGO and sustainable
development programmes. I am member of the Youth Observatory (Internet
Society Special Interest Group), NCUC and the Red de Innovación Política en
América Latina (Network of Political Innovation in Latin America). I was
fellow at the Eighth South School on Internet Governance, YouthLACIGF and
ICANN58 - where I was lucky enough to have Renata as my mentor :) .

Renata has nominated me for the SC and I accepted gladly. I really learn a
lot from the debates, posts and actions led by members of BestBits and I
would like to give something in return to the group and keep this exchange
going! I would like to contribute more actively to pushing forward and
boosting collaboration and exchanges among civil society members. BestBits
has this amazing combinations of core values and diversity among its
members that makes it strong enough to act complimentary and accordingly, a
great quality in order to address the most urgent and challenging IG
debates.

Have a great day! :)

Antonella
