[governance] IGC coordinator election results

Sun Oct 10 14:22:34 EDT 2010

Dear Izumi, congratulations for this result! IGC will benefit very much from
your experience and will certainly rely on the work and guidance of the
coordinators to help us reach informed, concrete and timely decisions on the
challenging times ahead of us.

Congratulations as well to Rafik. It is very good to see youth
representatives actively involved with IG.

Many thanks should go as well to the IGC coordinators for organizing this
election in such a transparent and efficient manner.

I would also like to thank everybody who voted for me, for their trust on my
work. The coordinators can certainly count on my assistance for whatever
needed.

Last but not least, I hope that the spirit of open debate and active
participation continue inspiring all of us. I do believe we are on a
key-moment for the IG regime and that our only chance to preserve its
original characteristics of openness and multistakeholderism is to develop a
clear strategy and a concerted action, while increasing the diversity, the
legitimacy and the outreach of civil society.

Best wishes and good work to all of us!

Marília
