Hello all,

I think Emmanuel will be an excellent chair for NPOC. He's been around for long enough to have the experience and the connections to make stuff happen and I would like to second this nomination for him to become the chair of NPOC.

Dear NPOC Members,

I am pleased to nominate Emmanuel Vitus as a candidate for the position of NPOC Chair.

Emmanuel brings extensive experience in Internet governance, digital policy, multistakeholder engagement and international coordination across Africa and globally. Over the years, he has demonstrated strong leadership in Internet governance and a consistent commitment to advancing public interest perspectives within digital governance processes.

I believe Emmanuel has the vision, experience and collaborative approach needed to help steer NPOC at this important moment and to further strengthen the constituency’s engagement and visibility within the ICANN community.

Best regards, Toby
