[UA-discuss] 2023 UASG Elections and Vice-Chair Candidates

[Wijayawardhana]

First off, I'm pleased to see that many members of the UASG community have stepped forward and offered to serve in leadership roles, representing a variety of cultural backgrounds. All the best to you, everyone.

This is especially for Abdalmonem Galila and U.B. Pavanaja, our current UASG Vice Chairs.

Thank you both for offering yourselves again as candidates to be the again vice chair of the UASG. We appreciate both of you reiterating your candidature for vice chair of the UASG. Gallia, you still have some proven commitment to UASG and a history of working hard to realise its objectives. Although Pavanaja I haven't noticed much of a contribution from you over the last two years; you weren't frequently present at working group and other meetings. I haven't noticed any noteworthy contributions from your end in the prior UASG leadership attempts to accomplish the UASG mission.

Before I cast my vote,I would appreciate knowing your from both of you, your individual top 5 significant contributions to the UASG over the course of your current two year term.

What unique contribution have you made individually to remove the current barriers to universal acceptance?

What you have done in your region and organization to remove the current barriers to universal acceptance, any success story?

Please send a reply with a copy to ua-discuss. Your response could help all UASG community members to make their decision and lead to a lively conversation on the list.

I'm hoping to see your responses.

Thank you very much! Wijayawardhana
