Subject: [AFRI-Discuss] Nomination for AFRALO Representative in Nomcom
Dear colleagues,

I am writing this email to nominate Ms. Ines Hfaiedh for AFRALO Representative in the Nominating Committee Nomcom.

Ines is a member of AFRALO through ISOC Tunisia of which she is a Board member.

Since embarking in AFRALO, Hfaiedh has attended all the Atlas III live webinars and has reached out to regional representatives for ways to become more involved in AFRALO work. To that end, Hfaiedh joined the ALAC Subcomittee on Outreach and Engagement. https://community.icann.org/m/mobile.action#page/31172466/header/ALACSubcommitteeonOutreachandEngagement-AFRALO
Hfaiedh has served as Africa Representative in NCUC where she strived to bring African members to take part in NCUC Africa webinars and mailing list as well as selecting them for fellowships to attend ICANN meetings.
With an NCUC Africa Representative term ending around the ICANN 65 meeting in June, her experience in the Executive Committee enabled her to learn better on consensus building and dynamics of collaboration which she would use if selected as Nomcom and seated around the AGM in November.
It is worth-mentionning that Hfaiedh is a member of the Nomcom Review Implementation Working Group, a working group offering solid background on the workings, procedures and timelines of Nomcom.

Hfaiedh is a teacher based in Tunisia. She was previously awarded the prestigious Fulbright Fellowship and taught at the Catholic University of America in Washington DC. She also trains teachers on ICT Implementation in Education and teaching learners with specific needs. Ines Hfaiedh speaks five languages among which Arabic, French and English which she speaks fluently.

We hereby nominate her for AFRALO Representative in Nomcom and trust she will live up to the membership expectation.

Hi Tijani

As per Alan's email, ISOC ZA has recently split into two where "ISOC ZA" takes care of local activities and "Internet South Africa" takes care of Chapter activities.
It's a little confusing at the start, but you'll soon get used to it.

But to answer your question, I am your contact replacing Alan, yes, just operating under a slightly different name of Internet South Africa.

Please add Theo and myself to the AFRALO mailing list.
Also, if there is any recommended reading that would help get us up to speed, please let me know.

Kind regards
Adri

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I do hope this email finds you all well. It has been a while and I have a grey beard :) There seem to be many mailing lists I would appreciate your guidance.

The Internet Society placed us a good predicament and we have split ISOC-ZA local activities from the chapter activities. I consider the RALO as the chapter activity so this is now called Internet South Africa - accepted as the Internet Society chapter of South Africa.

The new Internet South Africa Board includes the following volunteers,

Adri Loubser - Chairperson <adri.baard@gmail.com>

Theo Maseloanyane - Board Member <MSLTHE006@myuct.ac.za>

They have read the rules and promise to attend your telecon :)

Please assist to guide them to get added.

I believe they will both make excellent ambassadors for South Africa.

Thank you Mohamed El Bashir for your amazing service through think and thin :)

Sincerely

Alan Levin

Subject: Re: [AFRI-Discuss] Nomination for AFRALO Representative in Nomcom
I fully support Ines nomination. All along i have been looking out for a balance in the nominations. Graciously we now have one.
I have known Ines since her first ICANN 55 fellowship in Marrakesh few years ago. Since then Ines has become very active member of NCUC, NCSG and AFRALO respectively. She is one person i will say have deep understanding of ICANN processes and the entire Internet Governance community. I have work with Ines in many of the NCUC and NCSG working groups, fellowships group works, and has reports, speak and organise many of the IGF workshops.

Ines is one individual whom i will say is down to earth and very principled and professional when it comes to work.I believe she will be a true reflection of the community if given the opportunity.

I strongly support her nomination as well.
