Dear colleagues, I would like to nominate Shita Laksmi for the position of Representative for Individual Members in APRALO.
I had the opportunity to work closely with Shita as part of the APRALO Small Team on the Continuous Improvement Program Community Coordination Group (CIP-CCG), and again during the drafting of APRALO’s Comment on the ‘Continuous Improvement Program Framework.’
Shita brings clarity, collaboration, and a deep commitment to the multistakeholder model. She leads by example and navigates policy, process, and people with thoughtfulness. I fully support her nomination and believe she will ably represent the diverse voices of individual members.
