[governance] [igf_members] opening session civil society speaker

[Walid AL-SAQAF <alkasir admin>]

Hi all,

Though I won't be able to attend the event, I also second the opinion of
nominating Grace as the speaker. She had done considerable work in this area
and can relate to things on the ground best.

Sincerely,

Walid
