Dear all, As part of the implementation of the next steps of the mediation process (as you can see in the Report sent by email on 16 February, 2017), LACRALO needs to create a Council of Elders (this name was placed in the document sent, which can be modified later on) with the purpose of adopting a kind of mentoring to the members of the Community as well as to improve and promote the development of policies within our Region. In this way, we invite our community members to express their interest in the creation of this WG and start working in the implementation of its proposals. To start this project, we initially requested five (5) volunteers, whose participation will be received until thursday, April 27th, 2017 at 23 UTC. Looking forward from hearing from you soon. Regards, Humberto Carrasco - LACRALO Chair Maritza Agüero - LACRALO Secretariat
