Dear all,

I would like to sincerely thank each and every one of you for your belief in me. I recognise the significance of this position, and I'm determined to put in a lot of effort along with everyone to make sure we build on the gains of NCUC. The confidence you have shown me by electing me as the next NCUC Chair fills me with immense honour and gratitude. Having your support is incredibly humbling.

I would also like to express my gratitude to Hfaiedh Ines and all the other contenders who ran in order to create a competitive election. Your eagerness demonstrates NCUC's strength and diversity, and I am excited to collaborate with each of you.

Finally, I would like to congratulate each and every elected EC member:
Pedro de Pardigao, Latin America and the Caribbean, Sara Ali. Africa, Amin Hacha Europe, Mili Semlani Asia Pacific and Namra Naseer North America,

Once again, thank you for this incredible opportunity. Together, we can achieve great things.
