Estimados compañeros de LACRALO, Vanda Scartezini es la candidata que ha sido nominada por nuestra región como LIAISON con el Board. Ella no requiere presentación porque desde mucho antes de que la LACRALO existiese, Vanda estuvo presente en ICANN y lo sigue estando hasta el presente. Participa en todas las teleconferencias, en varios grupos de trabajo, habla portugués, ingles, francés y español. Tambien conoce muy bien a todos los miembros del Board, a los líderes de las otras 4 RALOS... Sabe escuchar y se hace escuchar cuando es necesario... Por todo eso y mucho más, considero que Vanda es la candidata ideal para esta importante función de conexión entre el ALAC y el Board de ICANN
Saludos,
Sylvia Herlein Leite

Dear lacralo fellows, Vanda Scartezini is the candidate who has been nominated by our region as a LIAISON with the Board. She does not require to be introduce, since long before the LACRALO exist, Vanda was present at ICANN and remains to this day. She participate in all conference calls, in several working groups, speaks Portuguese, English, French and Spanish. She is also very well known to all members of the Board, leaders of the other 4 RALOS ... Good listener and can be heard when necessary ... For all this and more I believe that Vanda is the ideal candidate for this important liaison function between the ALAC and the ICANN Board.
Regards,
Sylvia Herlein Leite

Vanda's rich experience with the Board will undoubtably benefit the whole at-large community if she could be selected. I believe she would be a very good candidate for the very first voting Director of Board from the ALAC.
