<div dir="ltr"><div>Dear NPOC members,</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you Joan for sharing this opportunity. In consideration of my interest in being part of the Mentee Programme, I am submitting my statement of interest. </div><div><br></div><div>My name is Agustina Callegari, I am a young social communicator, and I have joined NPOC last year on behalf of ADC (in Spanish, “Asociación Por Los Derechos Civiles”), a civil society organization based in Buenos Aires, Argentina (Latin America region). </div><div><br></div><div>Since I am a new member of this constituency, I strongly believe that the Mentee Programme will provide me with an excellent opportunity to continue developing inside the ICANN ecosystem. Specifically, it would be a good chance to make a step forward in NPOC as we are currently working in ADC in the creation of a toolkit in Spanish regarding the importance of the domain names for NGOs in the country. We expect to launch it in February 2016 and we will be pleased to present it to the community in ICANN Marrakesh. </div><div><br></div><div>Furthermore, I have recently joined the New GNSO Policy Development Process (PDP) Working Group as an observer in order to get involved in ICANN current process. </div><div><br></div><div>I would like to highlight that in 2015 I was part of both the NextGen@ICANN programme at ICANN53 and the Ambassador Programme during ICANN54. Ever since I have been engaged in continuing to support the NextGen program so as to benefit future groups.</div><div><br></div><div>Even though ICANN Marrakesh would be my third ICANN, it is well-known that ICANN ecosystem it´s not easy to fully understand. Therefore, I feel I have a lot more to learn about the community in order to enrich my work and to make better contributions to the constituency I am involved with. Moreover, I am keen on the possibility of having a Mentor, who could advise me and share his/her experiences. For all these reasons, I am sure that the Mentee Program will help me gain fresh ideas and perspectives to improve my work and engagement in ICANN.</div><div><br></div><div>If any other information are required, I am open to sending it. </div><div><br></div><div>Kind regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Agustina Callegari</div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2016-01-25 13:04 GMT-03:00 Joan Kerr <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:joankerr@fbsc.org" target="_blank">joankerr@fbsc.org</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><p style="margin-bottom:0cm"><font color="#000000"><font face="Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><font size="3"><span style="background:rgb(255,255,255) none repeat scroll 0% 0%">Dear
