[governance] Upcoming elections and the end of my term

[Fouad Bajwa]

Dear Ian,

It has been a wonderful experience working with both you and Parminder
under the coordination of whom I had joined the IGC and have been able
to participate to the extent possible. Under your coordination as well
as that of Ginger has helped IGC move in a very positive direction.

I have been indeed privileged  to be part of this Civil Society Caucus
and wonderful group. I look forward to continued hard work and
dedication aligning all the learning and engagement within the IGF for
the continued and deepened engagement with issues of importance to the
IGC in the role and responsibilities given to me and for those yet to
come in the near future.

We all have a continued role to play and we have footsteps to follow!

-- 
Regards.
