[Chapter-delegates] Eduardo Díaz SOI :: Upcoming election for replacement of ChAC Steering Committee member

[Eduardo Diaz]

*En Español...*

Durante mis 15 años de una participación activa en ISOC, he visto como
nuestra comunidad ha crecido y cambiado. Uno de esos cambios ha sido la
creación del ChAC, un paso positivo para estimular y facilitar la
comunicación y la colaboración entre los capítulos, la Junta de Directores
de ISOC, su personal, y otros miembros de la comunidad.

 Tengo experiencia sirviendo en Juntas de Directores de organizaciones sin
fines de lucro y enfocadas en la Internet, en comités y grupos de asesoría
relacionaods, y comprendo profundamente los muchos desafíos y oportunidades
que organizaciones, tales como ISOC, tienen que manejar y atender de forma
continua.

 Voy a utilizar la experiencia y conocimiento que tengo de ISOC para apoyar
los objetivos del ChAC articulando las ambiciones, problemas y
preocupaciones de los capítulos en nuestra región (así como también las de
las demás regiones).  La financiación de los capítulos, la participación de
estos en un proceso vertical de abajo hacia arriba y, el alcance, expansión
y la movilización de nuestros miembros son una prioridad. También hay que
abordar cuestiones de política como la neutralidad de la red, los Derechos
Humanos, la privacidad,  confianza y seguridad de la Internet.

 No tengo miedo en expresar mis opiniones y desafiar el status quo, tanto
con asertividad, como con respeto. Traigo un enfoque de sentido común a la
resolución de problemas basado en un conjunto de valores.


*and now in English...*

In my 15 years of active ISOC participation, I have seen our community grow
and change.  One of those changes was the creation of the ChAC, a positive
step to stimulate and facilitate communication and collaboration between
Chapters, Trustees, ISOC staff, and other members of the ISOC community.

Through my experience serving on Internet-focused nonprofit boards,
committees and councils, I have gained insight and a deep understanding of
the many challenges and opportunities that organizations, such as ISOC,
grapple with on an ongoing basis.

I will use my experience and knowledge of ISOC to support the ChAC
objectives by articulating and putting forward the aspirations, issues and
concerns of the chapters in the region (and for that matter, in all
regions).    Chapter funding, enhanced bottom-up participation, expanding
outreach and member mobilization are a priority.  Policy issues such as
network neutrality, Human Rights, privacy and trust must also be addressed.

I am not afraid to voice opinions and challenge the status quo, with both
assertiveness and respect.  I bring a common a sense approach to problem
solving and I follow a set of values.

I believe I can make significant contributions to the chapters through the
ChAC. I will serve the members with dependability, integrity, and
distinction to build an even more effective and unified voice for the
chapters.
