[governance] Re: [bestbits] Your key ICANN issues as a user

[NURSES ACROSS THE BORDERS]

Hello Nnenna,
Congratulations. We are aware of your assignment as members of the Stakeholders as an At Large Structure within the ALAC in ICANN

As a member of the planning committee for this event I have been aware of your coming,
My involvement in ICANN is that of an end user and not a technocrat.
In contributing to your keynote address as requested, one major issue ICANN should take on board and we have been advocating is to give the end user a bigger voice within ICANN and its processes. As desireable as the need for technicalities and expertise is the need for those of 'us' who uses the internet for our daily activities either socially or for official mails to be given a voice. Without the end user, the internet will be like a car without a driver. Given equal opportunities. A place within the Board of ICANN is not out of place. ICANN should give more attention and support to At Large Structures and internet societies in the developing countries to engage and promote ICANN feasibilty in these countries by sponsorship of programs initiated by us. ICANN is yet to be popular in Africa.
I hope this make some senses to you? Take care and see you in London.
Best

Awesome Nnenna!
ICANN needs recognize the specific needs, and respond accordingly, of its stakeholders ... ALL of them ... And not only by Geographic location or by "Professional" affiliation.
As an example ... The unique needs of and challenges faced by Small Island Developing States (2014 is the UN International Year of Small Island Developing States), Landlocked and Least Developed Countries requires specific attention and best fit solutions.
One solution cannot fit all.
Thanks for any help you can provide to get this message out.
