[IRPCoalition] IMPORTANT: IRPC STEERING COMMITTEE ELECTIONS PROCESS

[Viktor Szabados]

Dear Coalition,

I would like to express my interest to be part of the SC as member.

I am involved in the No Hate Speech Movement of the Council of Europe
as consultant and facilitator since 2012. I had a chance to
participate in 3 EuroDIG and 1 IGF meetings, that is how I got
connected to the IRPC first 2012.

I am committed to the aims and objectives of the Coalition. We also
developed links with freedom from hate speech as such with the work of
Coalition and the No Hate Speech Movement. Due to my full time job in
the private sector (not Internet Gov. related) I am limited or not
able to attend all the different IG meetings, however I try to
contribute in other ways in the work of the SC as in the past.

Would you have any questions or concerns regarding my application,
please contact me any time.

Sincerely yours,
Viktor Szabados
