I would like to support Naveed for the NomCom position. Naveed enrolled as a mentees under the APRALO mentorship program, and has gone through a rigorous learning process. I had a pleasure to be his mentor. His progress was extra ordinary, and the Mentorship program coordinator, Ali Almeshal also appreciated his progress among the pool of mentees, in one of the email. Hence, I believe that Naveed can be a good representative of APRALO in the NomCom. I wish him good luck and bon courage! Thanks.

Dear all,
I would like to self-nominate myself for the position of ALAC delegate to NomCom representing APRALO for the upcoming year.
I have been associated to ALAC through ISOC Islamabad Chapter which became an ALS in 2014. I have served as President of ISOC Islamabad Chapter and Treasurer of the Chapter in past few years.
I have been associated to ICANN since 2014 (ICANN50) when I got my first ICANN fellowship and since then, I have attended six ICANN meetings, including 4 appearances as coach ICANN Fellows and one as ICANN Fellowship coordinator in ICANN55. I have also got fellowship for the upcoming ICANN59. I also contributed in leading the working group of ICANN Fellows for draft the Fellowship Coaching guidelines, which have been in practice for the past one year.
Moreover, for the last two years, I have been actively engaged in regional activities of ICANN, and helped ICANN and ISOC in organizing a number of local and regional events through the platform of ISOC Islamabad Chapter. I am also working closely with ICANN as a volunteer trainer on DNS Operations and Security since early 2015. Besides, I am currently a member of Middle-East and Adjoining Countries Charter Draft Working Group and Strategy Working Group and contributed in the development of the charter followed by the strategy which is in the implementation stage at the moment.
As for my background, I am a university professor/researcher by profession, got PhD in Computer Networking from INRIA, France in 2010 and now serving as Associate Professor in a university.
Having my background and relevant association in past few years, I volunteer myself for the position of ALAC delegate to NomCom and hope that I would serve for the post to the best of my potential and capability.
Cheers, Naveed -
