Hey All –
Some inspiration for 2018. For those that were at IGF 2017 - you met Rati and Ucha (also at IGF 2016). They were key to this project along with our European team. Many of you met Maarit in December – she is cc’d here!
Onward with the goodness good people!

Subject: [DC3] CNs, Indigenous Communities, and one of the closing words at IGF 2017 - Matt Rantanen
Hi All –
Matt Rantanen (Cree Indian and much more) was asked to speak in the closing segment of the IGF. He is a community builder, CN manager, and a great colleague.
Thanks go to Renata, Judith, Glenn and others who are making sure that indigenous communities have a seat at the table (ISOC and APC helping there, too, along with CNs around the planet).
Recognition of the “Closing words” are here…
"indigenous peoples of the world should have a seat at the table on
Internet governance and be included in the decision-making level of
the process."
I have a vid, but looking for a better one.
