[seedig] [Ext] Re: Partial elections for SEEDIG Executive Committee 2021: Final Results

[Andrea Beccalli]

Dear SEEDIG community, 

I second all the comments for praise for the work and dedication of Sorina and Lianna to SEEDIG, their decision is yet another sign of their leadership and maturity of SEEDIG. 

As Gergana I had the privilege of serving as an observer in the election process, and I must say how amazing and unique exercise of bottom-up participation it is! To my knowledge there is nothing similar among the National and Region IG initiatives, as in many other fields, SEEDIG keeps leading! 


Congratulation to Bogdan and Liljana and best of luck to the new Executive Team!
Best,
Andrea

    Dear colleagues,

    Thank you to Katarina, Ioana and Haris for volunteering to guide us 
    through this year's election process. As an observer I've seen first 
    hand that this is not an easy nor a straighforward job and I appreciate 
    very much your efforts!

    I want to join all the people here on the mailing list in extending my 
    gratitude to Sorina and Lianna for their work with SEEDIG, which started 
    long before their terms in the Executive Committee and I'm sure will not 
    end with their departure. Under your leadership SEEDIG has turned into a 
    vibrant community as evidenced by a strong annual event as well as 
    successful intersessional activities.

    Congratulations to Liljana and Bogdan for their positions! I was very 
    excited reading your candidate statements and I believe SEEDIG is in 
    good hands. You are joining the the committee during unusual times, 
    however I'm sure that you, together with the remaining members, will 
    guide us successfully through them.

    My hope is that you don't try to get it perfect. Perfect is the enemy of 
    good. Compromising so that we are united looking outside gives us 
    strength - this applies both to the Executive Committee, but also the 
    SEEDIG community as a whole. I'm confident that you would be able to 
    lead us in the right direction and I look forward to seeing your work.

    Have a lovely day all.

    Best regards,
    Gergana
