Resignation letter
by Lianna Galstyan April 25, 2022

April 25, 2022

Dear APRALO community, As you know, at the end of ICANN73, I've been announced as an ALAC Liaison to ccNSO, and I'd like to further focus my activity around this new position. Indeed, I'll continue my involvement in other groups, such as the EPDP on IDNs, and others, but the main pillar will be the Liaison role. Therefore, with this letter, I'd like to officially note my resignation from the APRALO Vice Chair position, especially now, when we have an ongoing election process. I would like to thank the APRALO leadership for the remarkable 5 years that I had an honor and pleasure to work with you. We've been through many challenges together, especially the last 2 years of online life but I also had the delight to represent APRALO in various and numerous meetings and share the great work that we all do together, the diversity that we celebrate together! I would like to thank the APRALO community for the incredible relations we created since I became a member of this community in 2012, for the confidence you have placed in me during these 10 years! And, of course, I would like to thank our dear staff team for their amazing work and support through all these years! Thank you ALL! Best, Lianna P.S. I'm not leaving, I'm the part of this community and will continue to serve for the best of my ability :)
